Of the second tier strategy consulting shops like EY Parthenon, Strategy&, Accenture strategy etc, what are widely accepted market rankings? What is each shop honestly known for?

You just named three Big Fourish shops. Big 4 are the best accountants in the world. Not really consultants though

funny

I’m just kidding Parthenon is a good shop.

But these prestige posts can be annoying especially when you’re talking about companies that are by most measures just north of Big 4

Depends on the region, in Asia EYP isn't that good and it's fairly (or the most) easiest to break into, even from big 4 non-strategy consulting. There were many HR consultants got into EYP, and some are low performers (who couldn't convert a full-time offer from internship) at their original firm

Planning a trip to Rome and Naples with day trips to Tivoli and Pompeii. Is 1 week enough? I feel like reading through 3/4 day Rome and 2 day Naples itineraries, the trip seems rushed. I have unlimited PTO but my SO is limited in time (but luckily he can work extra hrs and then use less PTO). I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts? For reference, I did Venice-Florence-Rome in a week and it seemed okay but it also wasn’t as planned out

Feeling really torn between fed loans and private loans for my MBA. Rates are better (and no origination fee) with private and very likely won’t take advantage of the protections offered with fed loans— but after seeing how uncertain the world can be with COVID/financial crisis, it does make me take pause. Should I just do federal and then refinance after working for a bit post-grad when I’m feeling more stable/secure in my finances/career?
