Which would you take: “Strategist” role at AWS or Associate at McKinsey? I have no clear goals long term at this time :/

Associate at McKinsey is likely to pay more, grow comp faster, and open more doors.

However, a lot of people at McKinsey are trying to get jobs at Amazon.

So if you think you might want a career in tech, take Amazon. If you’re really not sure take McK.

If you have no clear goals then consulting would likely allow for more general exits

McKinsey all day. Luckily I will never be able to make this decision though

Sleep on this - think about whether you’d end up wanting to go from McK to Amazon in the future.

Both will be great on your resume. McK will open more doors later.
