My friend is a MD on the deal team side.
They lean pretty heavily on the strategy group as their strategy takes them into old line, ‘boring’ industries.
AS essentially has only one owner rather than 34 partners, so cash comp can be better than comparable firms but your carry opportunities are much more limited.

Hi! This is not 100% salary-related, but your feedback would be helpful. I was contacted by a recruiter from Pyramid Consulting Inc for a HRG position, although the agreement to represent and job posting both say HRBP2. I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience working as a contractor with Pyramid. A few hours after they contacted me, I received a communication from a very similar company, Akraya, Inc., for the same exact position. I just want to make sure Pyramid is a reputable company.
