Recently received offers from Accenture Strategy and Parthenon SSG (Undergrad) ! Which one would you take in terms of projects, culture, WLB, MBA and exit opportunities? ACN's offer is better in terms of starting pay.

Congrats! EYP is generally known to have a stronger brand in strategy consulting and if you want to exit to PE you'll be much more equipped here. WLB will probably be better at Accenture but can also be pretty good at Parthenon depending on what kind of project you're staffed on.

I don't think I've met anyone in the industry who actually takes Vault seriously lol. I'm also just speaking to general consensus, both from the overall sentiment from our fellow consultants (both in person and on FB) as well as cross-offer win rates. But yes of course I'm biased haha, Accenture strategy is great especially on the tech side. If OP is primarily interested in tech there aren't many places that are better to work at

Nice, I think Parthenon has a stronger PE opportunity and idk about ACN. No bad choices here, congrats

I think WLB here is second to none in the marketplace. I’m biased, but I’d also say the brand and exit opportunities are stronger here vs Parthenon due to the increased size of our business and alumni network. We have also committed to matching MBB comp - recently heard a commitment from a senior leader that this is a priority going forward. Currently, we pay $100k for our undergrads that go get MBAs in the form of tuition reimbursement if it is an elite enough program. But, an MBA is not a requirement to rise. Happy to answer any questions - just let me know!

I recently transitioned from a small, boutique agency to a global agency — meaning I went from being on an account team of 2, to being on a team of 10+. I’m also not currently managing anyone (and I miss it!). I entered this new role promising myself to set new boundaries since I’m used to measuring my success by my stress level. However, old habits die hard. I feel underutilized six months into the role. How can I adjust to finally having support and resources after years of abuse?

I’m having a hard time understanding the salary /TC ranges for mid- to senior-level strategy positions in the Denver area (10-15 YOE). They seem to vary a lot, and are broadly low vs. other markets (mid $100k-low $200k vs TC closer to $300-$400k+ on the coasts). Any observations? Which companies would you look at for more substantial comp outside consulting?
