Accenture Strategy vs. AT Kearney

Hey, I am choosing between 2 internship opportunities both in NYC from Accenture Strategy and AT Kearney. I wanted to know the pros and cons of both ex. Culture, exit opps, MBA placement, overall prestige, and which firm I should go with.

If you look through the forum you'll find former threads about companies. I recall one about OW/LEK/S& where somebody said LEK had good strategy and PE work. From what I know Accenture would have an edge in "end-to-end" solutions (which implies some implementation) and digitalization work.

Sorry I cannot help you more re: culture, MBA placement and exit opps. You might be able to get some info on the latter two through LinkedIn (check alumni).

Ultimately, you should be the one making the decision, so take the advice here with a grain of salt and add it to the other information you can find elsewhere.
