Big 4 Managememt consulting vs MBB. What is the difference?

Tier 2 to MBB fish... How has recruiting for other jobs compare at the two firms?

What is the MBB admissions rate for HSW, approximately?

What's the M1 salary at the big 4 firms? No MBA. I think I'm getting 125k this year at KPMG when I promote and wanted to know if that was in line with the others.

I am about to give my two week notice for Deloitte. Someone told me I should download my CPE report. Where should I get it? I am going to another big 4, how does the transfer of CPE credits work?

Do people know if the big 4 are all wfh and onboarding that way as well? Or have they started setting return to office dates?

Considering a move from a B4 to the West Monroe deals practice. Any insights from people working there or who worked there?

Why do Big 4 firms interview you for a specific position level and then try to make you come in below that level...

That would be a lateral move for me in terms of level which be okay if at least it was a good pay increase but Their quoted pay range for the lower level would make it almost a lateral move financially too..

Beyond frustrating

MBB AP about to exit to non-FAANG tech. Would you expect a signing bonus and/or pre-determined severance pay if things don't work out with the new company? Anything else that people have negotiated during their exit? I'd be leaving a large amount of bonus on the table to leave before the end of the year.

Would MBB firms ever pay for your MBA tuition if you got your MBA prior to joining? Like if you agreed to stay on for X number of years and they pay down your loans. Does that happen?

Can anyone let me know how easy it is to apply to a consulting firm in Dubai directly coming from London? I am currently working at a T2 strategy firm in London and my partner and I want to relocate in ~1.5 years. My firm does not have an office in Dubai whilst my partners firm does. Is it possible to apply straight (rather than moving laterally in London, waiting a few years then transferring?) interested in MBB views too. (I would have roughly 2.5 YOE by then)

How long should I be on H1b b4 my potential new employer can initiate my transfer?(on opt now).H1 activates on Oct 1st right?Shd I work with current emp for x days before new emp can request transfer?

Have interviewed big 4 company and got a offer around 25% bump and expecting better assignments than current firm. The partner in my practice reached out and is doing everything he can to make me stay

Salaams!

Anyone hiring Program Managers (Technical or Non-Technical) or Engagement Managers? Currently with Big 4. Please let me know!

YOE: 6-7

Is anyone part of the bizops team or has anyone interviewed with them? Interested in how similar the case interviews are to typical MBB cases?

Debating leaving and going to a different Big 4, thoughts?

Does Lebanese diaspora really command more power in the MBB and T2 in the region? How can others navigate a career here?

I'm about to graduate from uni and have sadly just realised that the creative industries I like aren't going to pay enough, so I want to get into consulting. Ideally in areas like marketing/branding/digital rather than MBB

I have no consulting experience and I have accepted an internship offer at an advertising firm for this summer. What steps would you advise me to take to get into consulting? Also, I get to pick between strategy and accounts for the internship - would either be more useful?

The man I love is now married to someone else. He was my best friend since university (were now in early 30s), we never pursued anything romantically (was too scared to tell him) and now he’s married to someone else and they have a baby girl. I went to see them and they have this perfect home and family. His wife is perfect, pretty & young and smart. I’m still single. I want to be happy for him but I was so jealous and sad and felt like crap. I can never tell him. Just had to let it out. :((

Has anyone ever done evening team check-ins and found benefits to having status updates at the end of the day vs morning? Asking about this in terms of working from home on an audit. Thanks!

I want to leave but I’m stuck in a lease signed in January. Everyone I know is moving home to work remotely and save money. I’ve never felt more stuck.

Hello fishes, I am not able to understand why D&A competency in TC is doing EPM implementation projects using Oracle. When there is a dedicated competency for Oracle ERP implementation. Anyone having some idea please help understand this.

Are rooftop bars considered outdoor + won’t have curfew anymore? If not does anyone know any bars/restaurant with drinks in midtown that are outdoor

Please remember, when you’re asking for salary information, it’s important to mention where you are located. For example, $100,000 is going to be a lot more in Mississippi than in San Francisco. Thanks guys.

Why do some people get laid off and others not? Is it always utilization? Do people typically know they're at risk before it gets to that point?

Hi everyone I’m new. If you could give me some likes I would greatly appreciate it!

What do you take for grades in your class/school/district? We have so much fun exploring and make great growth, but I find our hands on activities, while meaningful, are hard to quantify. Any ideas?

Is it good to hpe seeing current layoffs. Is there good work life balance? Job security?

For the GMAT Verbal, if you're a native speaker and proficient in grammar/writing. How do you improve your score? Simply practice? Or focus on re-learning formal grammar? i.e. Clauses, etc.

Who has the deck?!?!? 😞😩 Huge meeting at noon and no one has the deck.

Last night I was asked why I left PwC by PwC folks and I responded "because PwC is shit". 🤦🏾‍♀️ And that was before any alcohol touched my lips. Anyone else have awkward dinner convo stories?

Looking for a 6 month lease in manhatten, anyone got a room? Anyone at all? Someone has to have a room. Starting Jan 1. Let's do this people

What are the best consulting firms in the capital markets and/or investments world?

I think all frontline healthcare workers need to have their school loans waived, if they have them. (And yes, something for first responders/essential workers too. Like tax waivers maybe?) 🙏🏼

Took five days off. Came back to no meetings before 10am AND zero fires to put out. Regardless of what you think, your team can likely function a few days without you with the proper OOO plan. Take the time, get sane, work is not everything.

Best consulting firms without the massive ego?

I want to do PD but also just want to get utilized.

Flight attendant - If you are traveling with a laptop, we will provide you with an infant-only life vest. Thank you and enjoy your flight. LOL. :P #mondaymornings

Flying Delta instead of American this week. I feel like I'm cheating on a girlfriend. But this new one treats me right. Torn

Hi, I had an international flight with a connection through Atlanta with Delta today. Flight to Atlanta got delayed so I missed the international flight. Delta said they will provide hotel and meal vouchers. Do you know what those consist of?

That apple pie though. 🍰☕️🙄

Same flight with former secretary of energy Ernst Moniz (thought should fly private or something)...

Has there ever been a consultant’s union? Would you consider joining if one existed?

Laid off, any tips on how to gain experience/sharpen resume while job searching? I was in a project management support analyst role/ Venture capital sales role. I’m thinking of getting certifications to increase marketability

Does anyone have 120K bonvoy points they’re willing to sell? How much?

If I end up quitting after maternity leave, do I have to pay back any of my leave benefits? I guess I could ask HR, but wouldn't want to throw out any warnings.

Any more artsy / musical / etc etc people out there in this consulting world? What made you decide consulting over doing what you love? Want to see how many of us realized we really do care about...
