You've already worked for both OW and ATK?

funny

ATK is a competitor...? Half joking. Probably not likely - usually options open at 18 months

like

OP I’m also a BA/SBA at ATK, also strongly considering the exact same move... Feel free to email me at atk2mbb@gmail.com if you want to talk it through (can both stay anonymous w/ burners of course)

I think no shot, I think it has to be two years. but I can’t be sure

Where did you work?

OW/ATK

BCG's recruiting process takes 180 days?

@BA2 Sent you an email

OP what level/position are you applying for? Also interested in why they are slotting your start date 180 days out

Not true on 2 years being required - but it is the norm. Have seen 12 and 16 months

I believe 180 days out because fall starting dates are full with new UG hires

Thanks op. Were you hired in at entry level?

No

@OP sent you a response- looking forward to continuing the conversation!

Hi fishes,

What should I do? I know Morgan Stanley is a very reputed firm and might make an enormous impact in my technical growth, but is it worth taking the pain of relocation again?? I am confused.
