Currently an SM at Deloitte interviewing at McK and Bain for an AP/SM role in their tech practice. Also have interviews with AWS and GCP for L7 roles. Obviously don’t have an offer yet, but would love this groups perspective on future prospects, pros and cons. Curious how you’d rank the four and why. Thanks!

SM maps to AP? That's pretty good, you should take that if you get it.

I believe McK AP also maps to L7 at GCP

Based on maturity of tech practice area.

Depends on what you want to do. For me:
- GCP
- AWS
- McK
- Bain

Just an opinion - if it's L7 at GCP vs AWS...take GCP. Google / Amazon mapping usually has 1 level difference (e.g. Level 6 google = level 7 Amazon). The upleveling is going to be more important for your career than the market position of GCP vs. AWS.

That seems incorrect. L7 are principals at Aws so its very much at par it not better than gcp

Thanks for all the comments. Part of the appeal in McK /Bain is that I can be more rounded than just being the tech guy. My thinking is that’d open more doors down the line if I don’t want to be a career consultant. T projects I have enjoyed most are the ones that are broader but need to consider technology. Not a lot of those at my current firm.

What vertical are you interviewing with McK? Digital?

Hi everyone!
I have interviews coming up at BD in Maryland and, coming from the hospital world, I have no clue what salary to ask for.

For context, I have 4 years of experience in a hospital blood bank and am a certified Medical Laboratory Technologist. I was thinking in the 65-70k range, but the recruiter made it seem like that was easily attainable so I’m worried I’m asking too low. Would 75-80k be do-able?

Cons: I’m worried people might think it’s too much of a time commitment.

Pros: it’s reasonably impressive. I bootstrapped a company into existence on my free time and it has an impressive list of clients now. Profitable.

I’m technically the majority share holder, not an employee of the side hustle (it’s legally a company now). And I have employees that manage the daily activities.

For the salary expectation, I put in 85k which is in the range. I’m currently at 64k which is below the minimum of the range. Is this realistic?
