Deloitte Strategy & Ops vs. Cambridge Associates
I have two offers, one from Deloitte Strategy and Operations and one from Cambridge Associates. Does anyone have any input about the two firms. Deloitte pays a lot more but does Cambridge offer better exit opportunities?
Thanks
Is the Cambridge associates in Dallas or Boston?
I have never heard of Cambridge Associates... I initially thought you meant TCG. Go with Deloitte S&O. Deloitte alumni do just fine in terms of exit opps.
Its in Boston
Cambridge Associates. The work will be interesting and there is no travel. I have heard nothing but bad things from Deloitte. A lot of CA'S work involves advising institutional investors on asset allocation.
And Boston kicks the shit out DC.
I know a guy who started at Cambridge Dallas. From what I hear its mainly advisory role, spot on what eokpa0r2 said
Thanks for the advice, Deloitte is in NY thought, not DC
Hey ska, I have been in contact with people from CA. I was wondering what the interview process and all that is like? What position is it for? I know this doesnt help with your decision, but any info helps. Thanks in advance and good luck with your decision.
Hey RJW,
The interview process is pretty straightforward. I got an offer for the Consultant Associate position in the Boston office. Basically, first round I had had a 15 minute case. The case was not a typical management consulting case, but a sample of their work. Since it was only 15 minutes it was pretty simple.
The second round was 5 interviews. One of which was a more elaborate case (30 minutes) but still a more detailed sample of something they may do. One interview was about an investment article. The rest was all behavioral and then lunch with a 6th CA. The interview is nothing to be nervous about, pretty straightforward. Just do your research on the firm beforehand. Hope this helps and good luck
Any idea what the Deloitte performance bonus typically is?
I don't believe there is a performance bonus. It's a nice salary with a decent signing bonus and after 1 year I think they just adjust your annual compensation based on your reviews.
Smonkey89, I got an offer from Cambridge in Boston as well but I potentially have some other options.
Did you decide between CA and Deloitte? If you don't mind sharing, I am curious what you decided on and why. Also, did they give you a specific time frame in which to accept/decline?
Thanks
Take Cambridge Associates. One of my best friends works there and loves it. They take some very smart people.
