Management consultant evaluating an offer from Google’s Go-to-market team (Strategy & Operations) in India. Two questions:
1. Given it’s an internal consulting role, are the hours equally bad / worse than consulting firms?
2. Is it virtually impossible to move to a product ladder after spending 1-2 yrs in the role?

How do you know if a promotion might be coming your way soon? Do you ask? Will your manager tell you? I’ve taken a few interviews and would would take an offer elsewhere, unless I knew that I might be up for a promotion (to manager level) soon. I’m a sr consultant about to hit 1 year at a boutique firm, with 5 YOE total and a Masters. If my firm promotes me I’d prefer to stay rather than the same position elsewhere.

Senior in college stuck between three very different offers. One would be a strategy analyst role at a consulting firm, the second would be an in-house implementation/consultant role at Salesforce, and the last would be a marketing/sales role at Google. Which would you choose if you had the choice? I ultimately want to end up in Tech, but I’m always hearing that going into consulting first would open a ton of doors for exit opportunities.

Are Transformation roles in industry worth it?

I have about 5 yrs of experience (1.5 YOE in consulting, Senior Consultant level) and I’m thinking of leaving consulting for a permanent role in industry doing internal transformation. I feel like I’m underpaid and the promotions are super slow and unlikely due to Covid.

Could anyone please help provide any thoughts on the pros and cons of doing internal transformation projects in industry? How do different industries compare? Thanks for sharing!

Hello, I got an offer from Mckinsey for a Junior Specialist role. 1. Is anyone able to clarify the difference between the 'specialist' and 'generalist' pathways and how each track looks like? Is the 'specialist' pathway a second tier consultant within the firm or are both pathways equally good? 2. Coming in from being a SC in a big 4 company to a junior specialist in Mckinsey, is this a step down or is it an equivalent position to SC? I'd really appreciate your insights! Thanks.

I am interested in pivoting from an agency into a traditional business consultancy role. I have start-up tech experience and four years of Strategy experience for media clients. Are there any projects folks in consulting would recommend I take on to add to build on to a resume? From the outside looking in, it seems like there is an overlap in the core competencies of a strong strategist at an agency and a consultant.
