It's BCN, which isn't exactly the same as Bain. Even though the work is still not bad, I'd suggest Deloitte in Strategy roles, if you are getting one strictly into it.

I can’t believe someone would make this list and put Bain at the same level. You deserve Big4

Maybe not BCG1 😉

Obviously Bain & Co for pure strategy consulting work

If you don’t mind, what is the CTC range they are offering? Some of these firms offer high package and than hardly any hikes.

You'd probably have to mention pay as well. All the same means nothing because all of these operate differently and offer different levels of growth. When you can do that, you'd get a better answer.

Not even a second thought. You can always go Bain -> T2 / Big4 but not often to Bain.

Agree with NTT1.

It’s BCN, not Bain’s core business line. Without knowing what GDS, KGS mean, I’m not sure. If Deloitte is in the core biz, I’d go there.

KPMG GLOBAL Services = US-India

In India say any Big4 … BCN is more watered down than Bain US…

Assume WLB and everything is the same go with your gut on who you feel like you like to work with each department at any BIG4 can be awesome or miserable … go with what you feel is the best if all the Compensation are similar

At EY GDS you will get a flavor of startup company operating with no clear boundaries. Processes are not defined clearly.

While it's good opportunity to learn but most of times you may end up having competing priorities.

I know Deloitte has better perks as compared to EY GDS, PWC. If your salary is same, you can go with it.

Sometimes it feels so lonely that you start questioning your existence. When you don't have people to talk to, you have friends but they don't have time. You're single and living in hometown. Life means stress, it's really difficult to live a happy and peaceful life. There is so much of chaos, anxiety and loneliness inside of you that you feel wierd.These are the emotions right now, and I feel them very often.
