3. Boutique - Manager, but lower pay than 1 and 2
4. Tech unicorn close to IPO, strategy & ops. Cash comp is lower than consulting

This feels like the clear answer unless you just know you want to go into tech. If you feel confident about exiting to tech, not much point in passing up #4.

Tenure at T2 for a year is a wash with MBB if you stay for 2 years.

#3 is terrible
#4 is okay but depends on your taste on risk

Several factors:
- generalist model: I want to try multiple industries and project types
- learning: hopefully will achieve this but could be a hit or miss
- future expected income: will be slightly a loss in first 2 years but will make up if I make to PL
- brand and network: not as important as the other 3 because I have MBA from HSW so alumni network is always there, but the BCG brand is powerful but this could also be a hit or miss

Either way I’m taking a gamble where the upside outweighs the downside

4 if stonks are good, 2 if you plan to not stay a long time in consulting, 1 if you want to rise the ranks faster and don’t care about exit
