I might be able to help. What are your specific questions?

Does the risk team work with the investment team and ops team? How does comp and wlb differ, if at all, between the teams? Have you ever seen someone move from risk to the investment side?

Looking for some advice. Currently just got promoted to senior consultant at a big4 (2.5yoe) and received an offer for a boutique consulting firm. Compensation is 40% more and it seems I’ll have more opportunity for growth at this new company. I want to eventually break into tech so I’m not sure if going to a boutique firm is the right choice. Hoping to hear some of your experiences. Thanks
