Is this like a humble brag thread? Help me understand why IGAF about working at Google or anywhere else? Especially because OP “can’t really help" anyone with a referral.
This thread is designed to make high performing but low self esteem consultants think that the grass is greener or that they haven’t quite made it.
You all have made it, beyond so many stretches of your imagination.
Live within your means and be nice to people, and your life will be really good— and definitely on par with everyone else in the top earner set — where we’re all so busy comparing ourselves to one another.
Any luck negotiating salary or benefits? 90k sounds low given you were a post MBA consultant.
What has your experience been like here vs in consulting? What skills in consulting do you think best set you up for success?
OP I really believe I might be a good candidate either in the near future or down the line, and I’m flexible on pay and location for a great learning environment and interesting work. Is there a chance we could connect via burner?
Thanks for this. Couple of questions
1) What level would a candidate 3 years post MBA come in at (and what would be salary expectations)
2) What is WLB like? aka how many hours would you say you put in per week
3) What is your role in BizOps (analyst,associate,Principal?)
4) How many interview rounds are there typically and are they all cases
5) Which firms does BizOps typically get people from?
6) THANKS!!
What’s been your fave type of projects / groups you have worked with
OP what type of work does your role actually entail in business ops?
@Accenture2: FS
@Associate1: the role in BizOps was very dynamic - you consult in short-term Corp strat projects the way you would at any other consulting firm. Headroom on that specific team is limited though - people usually come for a 2-year rotation and then get placed in StratOps on a product. I recently made that transition
@C7: Go-to-market strat for moonshots, assessing opportunity cost of leaving some of our larger high-touch ads deals for new business, Cloud competitive analysis, m&a due diligence for kaggle
Thanks for all your help, OP! What was your timeframe from interview to offer?
Didn’t make it to the final rounds of a role recently at google. How soon is “too soon” to apply again?
@Associate1: The folks at BizOps are a little high on their own supply. Imagine the egos of the folks that succeeded at MBB and took what many consider to be a pretty prestigious exit. Makes it tough to actually implement. I liked working with our SREs (site reliability engineers) and Trust & Safety — the folks that answer “How do you structure a plan for a tech or political disaster?"
Thanks OP- so are you only in this pool for 6 months and are you considered for roles outside of the group you applied for?
Do most people on your team have MBAs?
@A5: every person on my team of 50
What do you think of Google People Ops? I’m in Human Capital Consulting so that would be where i best fit if I join Google. I heard while People Ops is respected more at Google compared to other organizations, there is a “you are lucky to be here” mentality coz it’s not revenue generating.
If I’ve done 3.5 years of digital strategy at a tech consulting firm and 2 years of digital and ops work at a strategy consulting firm. Based on my experience would bizops or product management make more sense (or something else) if I were to apply?
Thanks, OP!!
You mentioned you had 11 interviews. Can you speak to the major things they test and styles for a bizop role like yours?
Thanks OP!
