Currently a Manager at S& and I have a couple of opportunities that I am weighing.
- EM role at a MBB
- Strategy and Ops Lead role at Google
I love consulting and tech equally, having worked in tech preMBA.
Primarily weighing lifetime earning potential and WLB as considerations.
I welcome discussion on the best course forward. Google and MBB fish, please advise.

What’s the base and TC at Google?

like

TCP is similar between opportunities.

Assuming comp is fairly similar between the two and G offer is L5 or L6.

WLB will likely be much better at Google. Getting promoted to next level will be much harder vs MBB though, may not happen for many folks. Takes some hard work, luck, politics and much less straightforward vs consulting. The work also may not be super exciting either, Google known for lots of smart people doing mundane things…but that’s part of what gets you better wlb. lifetime potential earnings will be higher at MBB, there’s a clear path to 500k then 7 figures after.

If you value your wlb, Google. If you value money, MBB. Of course there is the scenario where your wlb is horrible at Google and your wlb is great at MBB, but that’s not going to the median scenario.

Thanks! That’s a fair consideration but unlikely to be an issue for me as long as the company still values its assistant coaches and puts effort into helping them materialize their career progression goals.

Having tough time deciding between IB & Consulting. My thought process: I have a "better" background for IB (TAS/valuation) and with tech layoffs, this might push more potential would-be tech applications to pursue consulting (there by increased competition)? Additionally, you can do IB intern and full time consulting but not vice versa. I prefer consulting, but IB seems like the "safer" option? And if consulting does get hit hard, I would hopefully have a full time IB offer via internship.
