Hello MBB squids, I need your valuable advice.

I am on course to getting an offer from Mck for the role of Data Analyst. Salary negotiations are pending. I also have a pretty neat offer from a tech product company for a role of consultant. If the Mckinsey compensation is almost similar to the product company, should I go for mckinsey ? I am in two minds because it's an Analyst role with no customer facing. Will that still add value to my career ?
Also please advice on career path for Analyst

This might be different for different paths as well, but if the goal is money, McK traditionally has a faster TC growth than other places. That being said it’s also likely worse WLB.

I would not take consultant role as industry job
