Which one do you like more? Tbh I would lean towards S& just because of the pay
Can't give you advice unless you tell us more about your interests, desired career path, location preferences, etc.
S& over the other two. I would not even put EY in the same league
Kearney is way more prestigious than Big 4 strategy arms. Why is Strategy & regarded so highly in this forum?
While Big 4 does dilute brand a little, the strategy arms are still seen as good. Strategy& has a good history because former Booz Allen and has about equivalent revenue to Kearney.
This forum has a hard on for Strategy& deals though because it does PriVAte EqUIty work.
That being said, many people view S& > K because Kearney has not really grown over the past twenty years. While S& has had its own troubled history, its been growing over the past few years and gives it arguably a more positive outlook.
So S& is def a solid firm and not clearly below K.
