Going to graduate soon with BS in Engineering. Have offers from Accenture and Deloitte Consulting. Accenture is offering 63k + 4k bonus and Deloitte is 57k + 10k bonus. So Accenture's base salary is significantly higher but only Deloitte has a graduate assistance program if I want to pursue an MBA a few years in the future. Any advice on who to go with? |

Accenture does not respect MBAs (except for internal employees working in the back office in the marketing, internal finance, etc. departments and within the tiny, tiny, tiny business consulting group). They are a computer services company. They certainly won't sponsor you for grad school and, even if you want to go to school at night at your own expense, you won't be able to because of the long hours and travel.
So if you are interested in B-school, avoid ACN.
