Any MBB/T2 strategy firm, in any city. Location agnostic

MBB will pay more - FAANG could, but not always. 130k for 7yrs exp is decent for no or non-target MBA.

Also, not sure that mbb or faang have a bunch of open positions with that salary that you’d qualify for. Just from my experience applying and looking - similar background.

You should be making at least 200k

So what do “strategy” people really do? Other than cause and effect (fishbowl) diagram?

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.

I almost got out of Pharma... A CD from a Consumer agency doing solid work reached out, and I was so excited thinking I could finally do the kind of work I love. Then they told me they will fill the position with a current employee. I played it cool, but I can’t deny I felt frustrated. I don’t wanna do healthcare, but it seems like it’s the only thing available in NYC nowadays. I also don’t have many connections in this city. So, IF you need an ACD/Art (full-time or FL-to-perm), let’s chat! 🙌🏻
