I’d never leave A&M for LEK
My answer to these posts is always the same OP: it depends what you want in the long run!
Clearly LEK much better brand and you can jump from there to MBB. If that’s your aspiration.
Two reasons:
1. the firms you listed don't have anywhere near the same rigor or discipline required as LEK, hence YOE is a poor indicator
2. our titles are a bit misleading (e.g. Consultant is actually PL, Engagement Manager is right before partner, unlike McKinsey where it's a more junior role think)
Lmao LEK does not pay more than MBB post MBA directly
Anyone from one of MBB who joins LEK raises the IQ of both organizations.
Kind of a fun little puzzle to infer from that:
Only people from the bottom half of MBB leave and the entire bottom half of all MBB is better than the mean LEK employee?
I don’t get the LEK hate - I chose bcg but I’d choose LEK over any big4 and over most if not all non-MBB firms. Their track record in sending folks to healthcare VC is off the charts.
