I don't know either types, and while I'm at MBB, I never interned in consulting. But there were a few threads about this in the past (mostly relating to FT roles though):
Strategy& and EYP are seen as Tier 2 strategy firms, so I'd go with them over Cap1 in a heartbeat unless you are only interested in the FS space.
Had an offer with Cap1 Strategy and went to their welcome event. Heard their MVP speak to us (about a dozen perspective interns). Really, really impressed by him. Can't speak to T2 stuff though

Cap1 is a very niche within strategy and you might get more product management exposure. However, EYP and are Absolutely top consulting firms right behind MBB. EYP/S& do not compare to Deloitte, they don’t even charge the same billing rates. Assuming you’re talking about EYP- Strategy and not EYP- TSE(which I’d just their transactions group).
EYP/S& If you want want to have more of a general choice. Working with FS in any of these 2 firms will still provide you with comparable exits to Cap1. Cap1 might have a slight edge in product experience but still EYP/S& can get more Corp Strategy, product strategy, Biz Ops and other things.
C1>Deloitte in my books for sure tho.
+1 for this. I just dont know why Cap1 strat is suddenly a "thing" here. It's not comparable to traditional management consulting career. Recruiters screening your resume will not think of you as a consultant. But, yes, it's a very attractive opportunity and im certain many former consultants would love to exit there.
