APAC Kearney employee here. Have an opportunity to shift to Bain, but have been in the firm for only a few months. Any thoughts? Should I shift? Or stay back longer?
Shifting will push me back 6 months.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Shift

Thank you! Could you also let me know your reasoning? I'm getting too many mixed inputs so would love to know your reasoning

Shift 100%. Bain is a much better brand and six months don’t matter.

Thanks, SC1!

6 months will seem like nothing in a couple years. If you want Bain make the shift ASAP

I would say shift as well. Let's say the offer comes after 2 years at Kearney, you'd likely be losing 2 years in that case. Most of the time MBB brings others in as lateral at best and even a drop down in some cases. The likely higher comp and exit opportunities over the long term will more than offset 6 months of any internal network you've built.

Depends on the part of APAC but Bain brand isn’t far ahead of Kearney in certain parts of it. If you mean ANZ by all means make the move but in SEA? I wouldn’t unless you are truly unhappy.

In SEA and totally agree with alix1

Japan India SEA, Kearney is doing better work and growing pretty fast and on a brand front is better than Bain. So stay back at Kearney, rest of the markets, perhaps the other way. DM me if you want to chat :)

I have always been very blunt and straightforward so I’m struggling to find the best way to respectfully counter to when the MD offers me sub $200k for a Director position in a new department she’s heading up, I know hiring her was expensive and then says “It’s not always about the money but more the experience.” Thoughts?
