I generally evaluate based on people, opportunities (long term as P1 said as well as short term) and financials. Never make a decision based on just one criteria and don’t underestimate people; they could make the most interesting opportunity filled job a nightmare.

Good luck!

Any consultant here who has worked at Citadel or knows someone who is working at Citadel? A recruiter from there reached out to me today, and I got the sense that the culture there is more intense compared to consulting. How would you compare Citadel vs MBB on the below points:

a) Culture
b) Diversity (I am an international student and a person of color, and my sense is that Citadel is not as international)
c) Comp trajectory

Thanks!

Lastly, I’ve seen quite a big salary range for MBA hires. Anyone care to share the latest? TIA.
