Does anyone know the extent of hiring freezes in consulting (MBB, Kearney, OW, Accenture, etc.) and if there is an expected end to the freezes? Any specifics are appreciated - I’m hoping to apply early next year as an experienced hire (2.5 YOE in finance), and am based in Canada (but am willing to move to the U.S.)

bump :) if anyone has info would be greatly appreciated!

They all over hired in 21 and 22. They slowed down in 23 and let a lot of under performing folks go through 23. Normal cycle. Suspect we’ll see ramp up in Q2 as corporate discretionary spending increases at rate anxiety eases.
