Thoughts on London T2?

London-based. Struck out with MBB, but offers from/in the process with OW, Kearney, LEK, and OC&C. 

Interested in reputation of these four firms, particularly with regards to VC exits. Keeping in mind possibility of exiting to VC, comp, WLB, and culture, how would you rank OW/K/LEK/OC&C? 

Cheers

Hey papi26, I think you deserve a response...heck, everyone does. We're listening, sorry about the delay ...my best guess at places on WSO that could help:

More suggestions...

I hope those threads give you a bit more insight.

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
 

OC&C if you like consumer goods work and planning to stay in the UK for your career. Smaller, more british, and therefore a bit more culty.

LEK if you like life sciences; they typically place well in PE but not sure about VC.

K if your into supply chain, operations type work.

OW for the broadest exposure, but financial services work is slightly unavoidable. However, OW is bigger than the rest of the companies combined.
