PwC - we offer promotions 2x a year

I'm not sure looking at this firm vs firm will be very helpful.

I've seen people at PwC make partner in ~6 years post-MBA. That doesn't mean you should expect that. If you're really good (and good at showcasing it) PwC can be a place to grow very quickly.

I've never worked at Deloitte, but if there are examples of fast promotion, I'd doubt we could confidently predict which firm would promote you faster.

Agreed, becoming a partner quickly is extremely dependent on finding right projects, mentors and sponsors.

It can happen in any firm but there’s no clear cut winner here.

Deloitte is making it slower but with the right support anything is possible

Pwc just made it faster for top performers (2 opps per year in MC, s&, tc) but I’m sure deloitte is similar

It’s not lol. They expanded actually

"Everybody can be a leader" some say... "Leaders are nurtured not born" say others... True.

But... this is also true: "not everybody wants to be a leader" (whether they can or can't be). It is a fairly common practice in organizations with traditional career management structures for people to "be promoted" into leadership roles as the "end steps of the corporate ladder" that was climbed doing technical work. And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time
