Strategy& US Offices

Hi everyone, I'm wondering is there a difference in terms of competitiveness getting into different Strategy& offices in the US (Los Angeles, Boston, Houston, New York, Chicago) Strategy& Ops Strategy Energy&Utilities? Also how big of difference could the compensation be for various locations? Any insight is greatly appreciated!

Hi there,

Yes there is - however, I genuinely would focus more on which offices you individually fit the best in. That is, where do you have work/life experience and where have you networked. Playing the supply/demand game without considering your individual application as a candidate is risky!

That said, New York and LA tend to be the most competitive.

Hi, I can confirm NY is the most competitive office. 2nd LA then all the others
