AlixPartners VS Roland Berger VS Small Turnaround PE (Europe)
Hello,
I do have offers from the three aformentioned firms; all for Continental Europe.
I would appreciate any opinion on what offer to take.
I come from a European semi-target and have spent two years at a turnaround consulting boutique.
My short-term goal is B-School and my long term Goal is either Turnaround PE or Fortune500.
The turnaround PE shop is kinda small (15 guys), but does have an outstanding performance.
I lean towards the more "prestigious" consulting firms, because I think I will have more options (especially B-School) later; I can delay the "PE question" and also may get into a more prestigious fund.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
for Europe it's RoBerg by a landslide.
Roland Berger if you want to do turnaround consulting, PE if you are more interested in the investment part. From your three offers, RB is also probably the safest option for B-School and F500.
I think consulting is indeed the lower risk option and RB wins for Europe. However, if you actually know now that PE is what you want to do, I'd probably go for it directly now if I was in your shoes (assuming their deal sizes somehow square with what you're targeting long term).
Thanks für your comments!
I have now ruled out the PE offer and will probably accept the Berger offer.
The only thing that worries me is that there are quite a few (ex-)Berger partners who have switched to the new restructuring practices of McKinsey and BCG.
