Topic Name: Booz vs. PRTM
Message Name: Re:
Date Posted: 01/17/2006
In Reply To: I have offers from both coming this week and weighing them. From what I heard ... Booz (Pro: Established in DC; Con: Stingy on title and $$$) PRTM: (Pro; Great $$$; Con: Not established in DC and poor work-life balance). Any confirmation or additional insights?
Message: Probably not the answer you're looking for, but I chose PRTM over Deloitte (commercial sector) very recently. These factors are general and should apply to the Govt. sector as well. Primary pros: Good $$ (as you noted). Smaller company with flatter heirarchy; promotes faster growth. Pretty good work-life balance (not sure how it may fall relative to Booz). Nature of projects undertaken and client list. The only significant con in my opinion: lack of brand name recognition like Booz, BCG or McKinsey.
