Entirely depends on what you are looking for. Travel? Culture? Deep expertise?

Last several recruiting cycles, Bain went 50% on triple cross offers, which means we are at least beating one of the firms, possibly both, on head-to-head talent battles.

Each firm has real strengths and real downsides, but are mostly more similar than they are different. Bain was the clear winner on culture for me, but the trade off was access to a smaller pool of case opportunities. A very worthwhile trade off in my mind.
