At Grant Thronton, starting at manager there was a shared EA but at PPMD levels, there is often a dedicated EA.

Had a nice partner that would let me occasionally use his assistant for random things (scheduling last minute flight /hotel/connections, getting expenses pushed through, etc.) at the Consultant level

Principal level in consulting in most firms from what I've seen. Unsure about industry - seems to vary more by company.

Partner

Heard MBBs do it at the manager/ap levels too - but shared

In industry I had one as an Asst Director (shared)

Earliest I’ve seen is Manager but it’s shared and almost no Manager utilizes, they just ask a senior or associate to help with admin related tasks

Principal here, but you share one with one or two other Principals and VPs. SVPs and EVPs get their own dedicated admins.

5 interns or 1 EA… decisions…

At EY, my director has a shared EA who is GDS. My partner (extremely senior leader) shares an EA based at some service center in Kentucky or Cleveland or something. Five years ago he had a local full time EA who supported him and him only out of our office.
