IBM vs. KPMG vs. FTSE20

Hi All,

Thought I'd get a perspective of people on this board on their opinion of the following options (all in London):

1. Consultant a IBM in GBS as a strategy role
2. Assistant Manager at KPMG Advisory
3. Assistant Brand Manager at a FTSE 20 company

My career ambitions are to do an MBA from a top school in 2-3 years. After which I would probably want to go (back) into consulting or look to start my own venture.

What would you say is the better option from the three above in terms of being aligned to my ambitions, prestige, money (longer term) and learning?

Thanks!

 

IBM is a great company, make sure you really land in a strategy consultant position (must be Strategy & Analytics) and do everything you can to get staffed in strategic-y projects!
