If you’re on the bench and having a hard time getting staffed, people are probably interested because of your experience, but say hell no when they see your LCR. I just did that for a Level 8 with an LCR almost as high as my Level 6. So, yeah, I’d be worried...

MBA hires start at L9. By the way, the C&M track doesn’t use L8 (you go from consultant L9 to Manager L7). $150k for L9 is top of the salary band but definitely not impossible. Many MBA hires (L9) get $145-150k base

Technically MBA hires are level 8s. If a level 9 is making $150K, I'll eat my shirt.

2 years ago MYC Acn strategy M1 is 160k. Which is the promotion one year after MBA. So 150K in a tier two city as MBA hire seems high but not impossible

Can you walk me through how you're making that much as an L9? Are you an experienced hire or have you been at L9 for 4 years or what...? I thought all MBA hires were pegged as L8s

OP do you know your LCR? If it’s around 150, then your cost to a project is significant higher than your peers and it might be tough to get staffed. When interview make sure to sell interviewer on all the “extras” you bring to the table.

This is why I struggle with ACNs policy in paying MBA consultants so much more. I get that an MBA holds value, so I'm not saying a new consultant should get bumped up to $150K (or whatever the new MBA hire salary is). But there should be more accelerated salary growth at the consultant level to even it out a bit. A 3rd year consultant and a new MBA hire with no consulting experience (except maybe an internship) are surely equal in value right?

like

Serious question folks. Keep hearing things about LCR

Eat it. I am an MBA Level 9. Send proof.

If an employee mentions something disparaging or accusatory about their manager during an exit interview, how would you handle? What happens if what the employee said is slanderous and a “he said/she said” situation? I.e. employee claimed the manager made a disparaging remark about an item of clothing being worn by someone in accordance with their beliefs. If you opt to share the feedback with the manager, would the manager have a legal case against the company or former employee?
