A friend is debating between Project Leader year 2 at BCG vs Sr Director 2 at EYP (I think strategy). Roles are in NAMR. Both focused towards PE work. We know EYP position and comp is significantly higher but how should we think about choosing which offer to take? The candidate wants to exit consulting in ~3 years for a PE potentially. What compensation should he negotiate - both firms have asked him expectation?

So you work at BCG and have an EYP offer? What Type of PE exit are you looking for? How much prior experience do you have?

The friend currently works for a consulting company (non MBB) in another geography. He has 10 YOE primarily in BCG, EYP and another firm. Looking at exiting to something like Warburg Pincus, Blackstone, etc. Given he’s worked previously for both EYP and BCG, having a hard time deciding. Thanks in advance for your help BCG1
