Need referral for Adobe..?
Can anybody refer..?
Advice: At FAANG technical product manager in AI (TC: 250-300K Seattle and growing). 5 YOE. Offered an Associate role at McK in Ops practice as a generalist (B:165, Sign:30 maybe 45, bonus: 15-20%).
1) will 2 years here be looked favorably as a McK consultant or is it not the same as a generalist McK consultant who sits outside Ops? 2) Want flexible exits 10-20 years from now, be it, diplomacy, politics or leadership in tech, so McK brand is imp to me McKinsey & Company Bain & Company Boston Consulting Group

EY has the best WL balance. The other have good WW balance though
It's big 4 - MBBD
Accenture
The Big 3 work you harder but what I find is while they are great at strategy, not always at execution and sometimes they forget the capabilities of the people that are doing the execution. Deloitte has the best talent pf the Big 4 and can play anywhere and offer a lot of the benefits of the big 3, day to day but the exit opportunities are not what they are at the Big 3
It's called MBB
Lol I think the joke has morphed into EMBB now
People who've come over: mostly good things to say about Accenture, Deloitte not so much (rat race). EY is big on support/personal development. TAS is better than PI
Is this a real thread? MBB exit opportunities tend to surpass other firm exit opps. Depending on how much MBB you've done, it might even substitute for getting a Top 5 MBa
15-20%
And TAS is vastly better managed than Pi, talent is better - mainly because the pay is better
OTS in TAS - its a mini firm but to move you need to be doing work there already. Basically show them why they should take you and that you can do the work. Most of PI fails in dealing with the ambiguity and a lot of the deliverables and people in PI, wouldn't be able to hack it, that was my experience at least. TAS recruits from top MBA and other firms like Deloitte, Accenture, ATK, etc. a lot of them haven't done TAS work before, they are just strong consultants with better pedigree.
Hours come and go and there are lots of subgroups within TAS so depends. I don't think it's more political than PI. Also I've met awesome PI people and not awesome OTS people. And vice versa. But on average I'd say TAS folks are more out of the box thinkers. Also more specialized.
"Big 3"
Or some variant on that
EY3 - do you know how big the pay gap is between PI and TAS?
That makes sense. Assuming they also had a poor year though? Maybe I should try to transfer - any groups in particular you'd suggest?
@EY3 my mentor switched from PI to TAS commented that TAS has MUCH longer hours and more political. But yes better pay but it may / may not be worth it. Insights?
Interesting that was the one area I was looking at. Curious as to why it's more political and how as well. With a good rating and good networking though, hopefully I can get around the fact that I don't have PMI experience already.
Longer hours during due dilligence and during transaction execution. When it stabalizes, it eases and post transaction during the integration, it can be better than most of the PI projects I have been on because the deliverables and end state are clearer.
