Big tech by far, especially if you can get a technical role - those RSUs add up and hours stay around 40. Some exceptions but mostly true from my experience.

Thanks! V helpful. Big Tech Roles such as partnership manager or product managers?

If you want to maintain MBB-level comp growth, I would recommend Eng/Data Science/Product roles unless you’re good at Sales. These technical roles are generally more respected and prioritized for equity refreshers.

MBB folks, do you and your coworkers even consider Big 4 people management consultants? Trying to gauge the general consensus.

Poll: would you choose working at MBB for 2 years or having an M7 MBA for long term exit opps and earnings?

If you break into MBB through an implementation arm can you transfer practices (e.g. procurement implementation to Marketing & Sales)

What are the major differences and ‘watch outs’ you would point out to me? Could be anything from culture, to red tape, to compliance etc.

Hi all- My SO is currently at a Big4 & was initially preparing for S&O roles at GCP but given the high number of ex MBB consultants hired, they believe its just more competition to get the offer & to eventually get promoted over time.

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!

Hi guys, I got a feeling that big 4 or T2 companies kinda quiet in jakarta as opposed to MBB where they conduct lots of recruiting events (management consulting). Any reason for that particularly or maybe big 4 prefer internal hiring only?

I’m in my 2nd year in audit. I want to pivot into management consulting within a big 4 or MBB. Has anyone seen someone make this lateral movement? I’m not sure how feasible that is and what steps to take. I’m also down to discuss further with whoever is comfortable in connecting.
