Chicago office has the best toasters, if you can find them

Congrats on getting the internship! The Chicago, NY, and Boston offices are all super nice. The Philly office is pretty run-down. Culture-wise, I would say Chicago and NY seem to have the most social events, but my perception is limited to the offices I've been to myself and the home offices of my team members. Chicago in the summer can't be beat; there's so much to do and the weather is amazing, so I would pick that if I were you!

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
