It’s BCG - he should take it, but he should try to get as close as possible to his current comp

Just to be clear, a knowledge analyst role is not on the consulting track. Our entry level is called associate so want to be sure we’re talking the same thing. An associate level makes close to if more than 90K

Analyst are usually not client facing staff, and won’t see the salary progression or ranges consulting staff do.

I’d tell your friend to speak with people in the role and get their view on whether they think the BCG name is worth the trade offs.

Yeah analysts don’t make anywhere near as much as people on the consulting track and progression is slower. I also don’t think it’s the career catapult that consulting is

What should he do. can anyone provide some insights regarding analyst roles

It is definitely not a consulting track, it more of delivery track.

How would you define consulting track vs delivery track?

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
