In Reply To: With offers at both firms, what are the upsides/downsides? Does Archstone seem risky given that they are still funded by private equity? Will working for a big firm like accenture open more doors than a small strategy firm like Archstone?
Message: I liked archstone alot, i don't think its too risky, they are private equity and partner funded. Through the grapevine i heard they have triple digits millions, ie $100+ million in funding, so they aren't going under any time soon. What level did they hire you for? I got an associate offer with them for after b-school, but i ended up accepting at another firm b/c I could move back to my home town, where Archstone didn't have an office. Otherwise I might have gone to archstone.
