Currently a Solutions Consultant at Pegasystems.
I am interviewing at and considering making a jump to Oracle as a Specialist Solutions Consultant.
The reason for my move is currently at Pega SCs are treated more as AEs or Account Managers. The role at Oracle would be more of a true SC position. I also feel that Oracle will look BETTER on a resume and someone as young as me would have BETTER programs in place to train me and give me the foundation needed to be a successful SC.
Thoughts?

Coming in as a Summer Associate at BCG next year. I’ve visited the office that will serve as my home base, but I’ll be visiting some family across the country over this winter break. Would I be able to contact the people at the local BCG office to check it out?
I want to scope out the office and people in case I see it as a potential move in the future. Who would be the right person to contact in the local office if I am allowed to do this? TIA!

Polite greeting; hello, my name is Inigo Montoya
Establish relationship; you killed my father

Seriously though, say hello and ask them something interesting. Be prepared with relevant brief bits about yoUrself and you'll get your opportunity to pitch yourself too.

Networks can’t be built in an elevator pitch. Take someone from the company out to dinner or a game of golf. You’ll figure out how to get past the basic name, role, and years quickly.
