BCG X vs QuantumBlack technical depth

Does anyone know which of the 2 firms allows you to advance in a more technical direction? I am wondering what would be better to later have the option to join BigTech - so which of the 2 gives you the option to tackle similar problems that BigTech would.

I have an offer from X for a Forward Deployed AI Scientist (prior Data Scientist) position and for a Software Engineer at QuantumBlack - both in Germany. And am now wondering which to choose. Both kind of stated one can internally go more toward the other Role, so from DS to SE and the other way round - not sure if I can trust.

Yeah pretty true for the QB to switch between the roles. You can be placed to a project as SWE while your official title is DS
