Critical Decision Time: Choosing between T-2 Strategy and MBB offer

Hello everyone, I need some help with decision-making due to my situation regarding recruiting.

  • I received a full-time offer from T-2 Strategy Firm (similar to Roland Berger / ATK / Strategy& / EYP) three months ago, which I signed, and the job is set to start in January.

  • After that, I continued recruiting for MBB and received an offer from them a month after accepting the T-2 offer.

What should I do, considering I clearly want to work for the MBB firm?

Thanks!

Seems pretty obvious rescind your acceptance and go to MBB. Unlike banking I don't this I've ever seen anyone get their offer pulled from switching firms in consulting. Worst case they'll go to your CSR and ban you from university recruiting but your in MBB so you really don't need them anymore. I will be wary of BCG though I heard from a friend that it's difficult to get staffed there currently and a decent chunk of new grads are being counseled out.
