EY-Parthenon vs. Alvarez & Marsal

Hi all,

I am deciding between the two offers; EY-Parthenon's M&A Strategy practice (legacy OTS) and Alvarez and Marsal's (A&M) Private Equity Performance Improvement practice. This will be my first FT job after graduation.

Similar office locations available (US), while starting compensation is quite similar but most likely will be more on A&M's side after a few years. Honestly not sure how long to stay in consulting for or what I'd want to do after consulting, but I have considered working in a PE operations team or a strategy/corp dev role for Fortune 500.

Thank you in advance.
