👋🏾

Currently at a Tier 2 Strat shop, looking to lateral to MBB PEG/PIPE in the next 3 quarters.

Anyone ok for me to DM?

Has anyone moved from tech consulting to strategy in MBB's. Anyone willing to guide on how you made the move?

Is it worth moving to strategy consulting or do strategy business ops in industry?

MBB or FAANG (Ops role)? Similar comp structure

I want to exit to MBB but if that’s not a possibility what are the next best consulting firms? Looking for at least midsize firms (non-boutiques).

Is MBB serious about DEI? How is the environment for minorities (both at the bottom and top, including for East/South Asians)

Best paying firms in Toronto?

Obviously MBB pays the most but other ones that pay well? Looking to make ~200K (TC) at the M level

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?

What would you all say are the best consulting firms to work at in the federal government space? I’m not sure how many “prestigious” firms (like MBB) have a significant federal practice at all.

We always keep hearing about the bad WLB in MBB, especially BCG. Want to know if it's actually true, or is it an untrue rumor spread by people who couldn't get into these companies.

(Note - I am talking about incremental WLB issues, over and above the issues at Deloitte S&O, Accenture Strategy, etc. as these issues are common in management consulting)

I’m thinking about moving from the US to Australia or New Zealand. I want to apply to the MBB firms or B4 strategy. Does anyone have any insight as to how much they’re hiring at the moment?

What is the hiring market looking like these days? I am seriously burnt out and ready to exit MBB consulting, but feel this economic downturn may not be the best time to make big career moves. Thoughts?

What can help me (2 YOE at B4) get an interview at MBB besides a referral? Certain skills, certain qualifications, GMAT score, or something else?

How is TSMG in terms of CTC, type of projects and WLB? I have heard CTC is comparable to MBB - is that correct?

Graduating senior. Have choices between MBB and SWE at FAANG. Not sure what to do. Long term I’d love to be in a small startup or a leader in a tech company. Not sure which path is better for that. Any thoughts?

Is hiring going strong these days in MBB? I will be interviewing soon with Boston Consulting Group, McKinsey & Company, Bain & Company

Any ME fish willing to share insights?

What are considered some Target schools for MBB at the UG level in the US? All the Ivy leagues + best tech ones? How much of a difference does it make for an experienced hire candidate?

How to start prepping for MBB firms for associate roles with no prior consulting experience starting from recruiter screening call. the only thing i know is case in point book

If you break into MBB through an implementation arm can you transfer practices (e.g. procurement implementation to Marketing & Sales)

What do the highest paid senior partners at MBB make? Is there anyone getting up to $5-7mm pre-tax (obviously). Or is it pretty much a $3-4 ceiling

What are pre-MBA pay bands at MBB?

"Making Grades Matter" standards based grading in a Secondary PLC at work
by Townsley and Wear.

Anyone at a school that has implemented this?
I'm curious what the results are

I've spent a good amount of time working strategy, product development and change management/PMO projects . Data Scientist by training with a small amount of DD and financial modeling experience - so hopefully have the analytics chops to learn new skills as needed.

Working through getting some concrete M&A/ Valuations experience to make me a better candidate for a PE/VC firm. One question.

Will a shop take you and teach you on the go - or should I build that resume more?

Would you trade Brandin Cooks for Jared Goff? My current QB is Wilson and my other WRs are OBJ, Julio, and Juju

I got a offer from HCL.

I have given joining date of my previous company with a difference of 1 week and submitted joining form.

Will there be any issue in BGV.

I am worried about it.

Can anyone please suggest what I can do at this point.

Hi, Received CTC breakup on email from HCL HR team but still waiting for the proper offer letter for last three weeks. Any idea how much time Hr takes for releasing the offer letter? My last working day is on ,10-Aug-2022.

Hi All..Once project completed if no projects will HCL ask to relocate???

Hi Fishes, Pls help,
YOE: 13 yrs
Cctv: 13 lpa

Have cleared HCL interview. Initially they offered 23 lpa (via proposed offer letter, to be approved by L4), but i requested to reconsider it for 25 lpa. After 5 days, they sent final offer letter of 19 lpa (stating they can offer max 50% as per L4 approval).

I don't have any other offer as of now. What should I do?

This weekend flew by smh. Can't believe it's about to Monday already

Oak park vs. Evanston - thoughts?

What do you do for winter shoes and commuting?

I walk a total ~20 mins in between train/bus stations and then getting from the stop in the loop to the office.

What do I do come wintertime for boots? Do you wear them while you're in the office? Or do you bring dress shoes with you to change in to? I wear a suit to work, so what boots would be good for winter but also look decent with a suit? This is my first winter in Chicago (a socal transplant)

Does anyone have any thoughts on the University Club? Pros/Cons

I have really broad shoulders as a woman, it makes me feel like a man :/

Hello fam! Hope you’ll are enjoying your Sunday!

I faked my resume I mean my contracting firm did and I didn’t have choice and I got the job. Now my client wants to offer me a full time position. I kind of feel like they trust me with the work I’m doing and also considering my past experiences to offer me a full time and moreover it’s only been 3 months.

I know it’s a little unusual but what do you guys think/suggest me to do in this situation?!

Do you have to know some within AmerisourceBergen to work for them? I feel like I have tried 5 times to work for them and nothing has happened.

We are looking for Qliksense profile with experience of 6 years to be joined ASAP. The requirement is in Delhi NCR and the candidate should be able to understand Hindi.

Any perspectives on Strategy& Deals Strategy team in the UK? How do they compare with the likes of other T2 shops (EY-Parthenon / LEK / Oliver Wyman) in terms of comp, sectors and clients?

Anyone at BCG London know the salary bands for
1- Manager (Newsroom)
2- Senior Project Manager (GPMS)

+ annual bonus (+signing?)

Thank you!

How much international travel do you do? How many YOE do you have? Do you travel business class?

Hello, I’m wanted to move back to London. Can someone recommend a few good consulting recruiting firms to reach out to? Thanks!

Manager at Cap Invent (Consulting). Deloitte Consulting offering same grade with 13% increase in base salary with TC (bonus incl.) getting to around 95k.

Thoughts?

Anyone have any idea what a senior strategy consultant at HSBC pays? I’ve had a browse through glassdoor but would be good if there’s someone that has received an offer etc to give a more accurate idea. TIA

Hi All, Any Managers at EY Parthenon in London office who can share any insights into the salary for Managers/ Directors? MBA and 5+ years of experience? Thanks in advance!

Anyone from the states did a deployment here through work? Any advise on how to go about it?

Anyone in PMO / tech implementation in the life sciences space? I’d love to ask some questions

Could anyone from Bain’s London office provide any insight into how much travel was typically involved (Pre-COVID)?
Also, how do you see the split of WFH/office/client site be going forward?
Thank you!

How long does it take for you all to commute to work normally? I am moving to Woking soon and am looking to land a consulting gig in London. It will take me 10-20 min to get to the train station, and from then on the train to Waterloo takes 30 mins. Not sure if that’s going to be too long a daily commute by UK standard?

I get tax brackets but in the UK making 30K you pay ~£6K tax and when you make around 5x more at £150k you pay 10x more tax ~£60k. What things can you do to lower your tax in consulting? (I’m not at 150 yet but most of us will get there hopefully if we stay in this role)

Anyone else work with international teams meaning they have to start their day extra early?

Have been approached for a role at PMSI Strategy Consultants?

There is very little information available about them. Has anyone heard of them?

Seems like they are focusing on CDD only but would love to know more about them if anyone has any insights.

TIA

What’s the work-life balance at Strategy& and EY-Parthenon in the London offices? At the moment I’m averaging around 50-55 hours at my boutique - higher or lower?
