Should I join a T2 consulting firm or a health tech startup doing analytics?

I'm currently at a healthcare boutique and I'm debating between these 2 options. I'm trying to optimize for exit ops and business school placement.

They have similar comp but at the T2 I'll mainly be doing CDDs whereas at the startup I'll gain more technical skills since I'll be doing analytics. The T2 is more of a "brand" but I feel like I'll gain more hard skills from the startup.

Go for T2, better option for exit and business school profile . Can switch to a startup anytime from a T2

Split of audit and consulting ? I don’t think it will have a big impact , EYP already operates quite independently from the other consulting division

I’d go T2 sounds like you’re earlier in your career so I think they gives you max options. You can always join a startup later

Are you likely to be sponsored for an MBA at the T2? If not, your MBA application will benefit from you not being a consultant.

Exit ops will likely be better at the T2.

No being a teacher would. Look at the class profiles of P&Q and your prospective institutions.

Depends on your risk tolerance. If averse, then go for T2, else go for the startup.

I’d rather take the risk and pad the resume with technical skills. Maybe grab some equity

Bad time to join a startup… unless it’s really efficiently run, has great product market fit (and a repeatable growth engine), and well capitalized.

Hey, I received a verbal offer from EY for a role as manager, which was quite a low ball offer. I had received another offer from a different firm and I informed EY HR about it. I was told yesterday that they have an updated offer for me, scheduled the call twice with me but didn't actually call and told me she got occupied in other meetings. I have not got a response from her yet on the mails, should I contact the hiring partner directly? other firm is asking me to update as well.

Request to share honest detail here.
