Why do M7 grads who don’t get mbb take big 4 strategy (Deloitte S&A, strategy&, eyp ) over many of the T2 shops?

Big 4 pay well and recruit aggressively at all T25 programs...if your goal is to do consulting, why not? Also, T2s tend to hire in smaller numbers than B4

Deloitte, for one, pays 2nd year tuition for returning interns. It’s enticing to some.

Mmm strategy& is legit T2. I don’t know many who pick Deloitte, EYP, KPMG, Accenture over T2

Lol it’s laughable to put eyp in that list, especially with the latter two.

EYP is a solid T2.

What are you defining as t2?

Don’t group Deloitte with the other 2

Then to answer your question, S& is the closest thing to MBB with project variety and arguably work quality. So why not?

In addition to it being a numbers game, some T2s have a preference for people with specific experiences pre-MBA which can make them more likely to land the more limited spots at smaller T2s versus some of the generalists out of MBA. For example, Kearney with those with ops or logistics experience pre-MBA with F500 or A&M (excl. industry groups) with those with heavy financial or accounting experience pre-MBAs.

like

Why wouldn’t they?

Mostly size of hiring numbers. Kearney, OW and other tier 2s are much smaller than (and thus hire much less than) big 4 and accenture.

Is it more worth it to go into FDD at a regional firm now, or hope that my current big 4 will transfer me come spring 2021?

I'm kind of in the mindset of only doing FDD at big 4, otherwise I'll go straight to industry. Am I being too down on mid-market FDD experience and the related exit ops?

Also, I can't go the route of doing FDD at a different big 4. Already got rejected by all of them cause I'm not in audit (but have CPA).
