What are junior non-MD/partner sales roles in consulting called?

There are plenty of good exits. It’s about communicating your interest/willingness at a great client, or aggressively pursuing your out. Best at tenured M or SM. MBB may make an effort to build a strong network externally. ACN Strat does not.

I left ACN strat for a boutique and haven’t regretted it.

You’re at PWC now, so I don’t see ACN as a step up but a lateral move. Anything Accenture would get you PWC would too. Unless you’re blocked from moving forward at PWC, make sure ACN is putting hard dollars on the table to justify a move.

I also transferred from PwC and turned down S& to come here and have never been happier. It’s a great place to work with cool people, great WLB, great comp and exits in line with other T2s (minus S& maybe which is closer to MBB)
