Difference Bain PEG and Strategy& Deals Strategy?

I’m a DS partner, former MBB (most of us are).

There are more similarities than differences, in terms of the work. Biggest day to day difference is we have a dedicated pool of staff, it’s not a rotation. In terms of career trajectory, it depends heavily on what it is you want to do for a living. Being a PwC partner is a great gig. If you don’t want to stay through to partner, though, Bain on the resume will open some doors that PwC won’t (though our staff do very well into middle market PE placements).

For me personally, I find middle market clients much more pleasant to work with than the mega funds I used to serve, I work less and get paid more, and I love the group here. Your mileage may vary.

Really helpful perspective, thanks.

Separately, I’d love to hear any thoughts you might have on S& DS vs. EY-P’s PE practice. TIA.

Our firm told everyone no bonuses this year due to the pandemic. However, people like myself with high utilization received a “bonus” in terms of a gift card. My director notified me of this, but the other day my boss was mentioning how no bonuses this year really sucks. I was told by the director to not mention it to anyone but I figured if anyone knew I got one it’d be my boss. I feel super uncomfortable now because do I essentially lie to my boss because I’m not supposed to talk about it.
