What’s better at the start of a career: strategy intern at Accenture Strategy or consulting intern at Gartner? They both offer a similar salary.

My thought is that at Gartner you will have more visibility and interaction with Sr leadership, more diverse exposure to clients and practice areas, and won’t be treated like a commodity.

Both are mids but ACN Strat is better because Gartner is super mids

Accenture. That’s where I started fwiw, no regrets.

Accenture and it’s not even close. Haven’t heard great things about working for Gartner. WLB will likely be way better, but exit ops and pay won’t.

Accenture Strategy for sure. The more accurate comparison is Accenture Consulting vs. Gartner Consulting. Strategy > Consulting

Probably more fun at Gartner, better insights at ACN

Depends what you want to do as a next step. My thought would be Accenture, their strategy house is solid. If you want to get in to tech as a next step.. but admittedly I don’t know a whole lot about gartner if I’m being honest so definitely take my suggestion with a grain of salt.

Gartner leadership team members are mostly former McK partners.

Talk to prior interns in both firms and you will get a good feel for the differences. I have worked in both organizations and they are different.

Due to a recent company-wide increase and additional pay for bilingual direct reports I am only making a dollar and change above them as their supervisor. I was hired into this position in March, having been the first employee in this department. I really tried to get them to budge on salary, they did not, but shortly after accepting they gave the whole company a dollar raise.

Any suggestions on how this might be addressed?
