MBB interviews, Google and Accenture MCDP offer
I got interviews with McKinsey, Bain, BCG, Monitor, Accenture, Oliver Wyman... and am making the following decision since I ended up with only an Accenture offer in consulting (and other non-consulting offers):
How competitive is Accenture's Management Consulting Development Program (MCDP) in the following areas:
-a. Comparison to McKinsey, Bain, BCG
-b. Exposure to industries and businesses?
-c. Exit opportunities (other than MBA) in the MCDP--comparable to top-tier firms?
-d. What are Accenture MCDP's target schools?
-e. Diversity and culture in MCDP?
-f. Types of projects in MCDP?
-g. Work/life balance?
-h. How long are most projects?
-i. Is it prestigious?
-j. anything else you would like to include
I want to get business exposure, looking forward to traveling, and am wondering if MCDP with Accenture is a good program to pursue vs. other firms, or if I should get a year's experience and then try to get into another consulting firm?
Please base this on information, colleagues, friends, experiences...
Thanks in advance!
You have MBB interviews coming up or you already had them and didn't get anything? If MCDP is your only option then you don't have much of a choice anyway.
MCDP is a solid, relatively new program that targets top 25 universities.

Hey I was actually in a similar position - had offers from MCDP, Google, as well as other large industry firms and boutique consulting. I went with boutique but I would take MCDP over the other ones you listed. Love consulting so I'm biased.
Thanks for your responses!
Any more insight/recommendations?
I'm actually in the same position...got an MCDP offer from Accenture and am debating whether or not to accept. So I was wondering if you ended up taking the offer and, if so, how you're finding it so far.
Cheers
