I have a post-MBA offer with Accenture Strategy and I'm seeking advice on whether I should pursue this offer, or if I should continue to recruit for MBB (which may open more doors/opportunities). I previously worked 4 years at Deloitte Consulting.

Where do people from Accenture Strategy (not Accenture Management Consulting) tend to go? Is it possible to have similar opportunities as MBB firms or do you have to work harder to get MBB-type opportunities?

Joining AS from B4. Joined B4 after bschool. I regret signing with B4. I had a great internship so I signed but looking back, I should’ve continued to interview until the very last minute. I was more interested in tech at the time but big tech wasn’t targeting my school and I believe their hiring cycle was much later in the year for bschool grads so I settled. 4 years later I’m joining AS. If MBB is what you want, MBB is what you should go for. If they reject you, at least you won’t have any regrets.

I asked for 20 initially, but they are not willing to go beyond 15 without any counter offer. HR flat out rejected 20 saying business will not approve. what is the max they will give after providing counter offer? And if i join around November, when will i be eligible for next appraisal? They are offering c1 band.
