Between the two, based on your research on them and interview process which one you believe is a better fit with your career aspiration, values and risk apetitie?! Go for that which is a better fit.
Generally, in that region S& is much better placed than KPMG.
Hi there,
It depends on your goals.
What are you planning to do 5-10 years from now and which kind of job would be interesting for you now?
In terms of strategy consulting, as you probably know the Strategy& brand is definitely stronger.
Best,

Hey there,
I disagree with most answers here that tell you to focus on fit and values. It is an internship for a few weeks and not a marriage for life.
The key fact is that strategy& has a much stronger reputation both in the region and globally and will position you much better for whatever goals you want to pursue afterward. Additionally, the projects you will work on are more likely to bigger impact items, etc.
Go for strategy&.
All the best with your internships and congrats on scoring two offers!
Cheers,

Hi there,
Strategy& is one of the top players in the region. If you are optimizing for prestige and exit opportunities in the Middle East specifically, then Strategy& is your best bet.
However, please do also consider cultural fit and other qualitative factors here!
Strategy&.
Hey there!
Always base your choice on your preferences and values. If you choose some company only because it's "better" but does not fit your ideas - you will not make any success. Make research on both companies, and then you will see, what suits you better.
If you have any further questions - feel free to write to me!

Hi, if you are interested in strategy consulting I would go for S&. KPMG is more implementation oriented

Strategy& has a very strong reputation in the Middle East (arguably higher than the other regions in which it is). On that basis, particularly for your internship I would recommend indexing on brand more than anything, as that will keep your doors open when it comes to full-time hiring.
Of course I'm not biased ;)
