L.E.K. (LA) vs Strategy& Private Equity Value Creation (SF) for first job out of college?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Looking at various factors like exit opps (particularly into corporate strategy), comp, and culture.
The Private Equity Value Creation group at Strategy& is focused on operations optimization at PE portfolio companies. L.E.K. LA does all the firm’s Media & Entertainment and Life Sciences strategy work. I think they’re different enough to make a call based on that.

LEK
Although S&'s group is focused on PE portfolios, you may be exposed to multiple industries. LEK's M&E work is decent, but nothing special. LS is where they really stand out and a great opportunity to learn about the sector. If you think you'll end up going to LS, then pick LEK and don't look back. Maybe reach out to people in order to better understand where you stand.
OP, is this for a summer internship or FT?
