Senior manager and associate partner at MBBKOW how comfortable are you in dubai? Can you afford a nice house, car and generally (within reason) not worry about money?

Assume wife works as manager in big 4 consulting

I am hearing that MBB is pausing majority of the interviews - should I be worried about my offer getting rescinded? I luckily got my offer a few months ago and received my signing bonus already.

How do you for sure if big 4 is not for you?

Which Big 4 is the best to be at regarding work culture and benefits? Especially during these tough times.

Hi ME 🐠s! Would like to know a bit regarding Business Analyst roles in MBB, T2 / B4 firms in UAE. I come from a target school in India (say MBB / T2 hires from my college every year) with ~1 YOE in consulting - based in Dubai. Would the stated firms consider me for a BA role (lateral hire as an experienced BA)?

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?

Hi ,
I am having 5.5 years of experience in software testing.

My current CTC:7.26lpa
Offer in hand: 1( Big 4 Company)
Offered CTC:12LPA

Can I try for other opportunities or can I join on this company?

What is the current salary for 5.5 years experience?

want to interview at MBB again. Last year i had started the process but had to stop the process due to severe family emergency. What followed was depression and im doing fairly better now. I am Leaving Big 4 to join a tech focused Bank. But i feel like I should reach out to recruiter and start the process again. Just not sure if it’s the right move since im joining a new company. Feel it’ll look bad trying to join MBB after starting at a new bank. What to do?

How much do partners at big 4 make on average? How bout MBB?

Hi Friend,

Could you please let me know about vacancies for Consultant or Senior Consultant position in a Management Consulting firm?

Thanks for your time.

How is the hiring at MBB in Toronto at the moment?

Best way to approach networking with MBB if I am planning to apply for roles in Jan 2024 (1 year from now). Do people start with their school alum and get referred to partners?

Big 4 : How would you evaluate this offer in consulting : 170 k, HCOL, 9 yoe, Manager in HCOL?

Do any strategy arms of Big 4 or MBB do pre-MBA internships?

is it worth it to shift to IB or MBB after 7 years in the big four(audit and fdd)? I do think IB and MBB are interesting fields that you can acquire unique skill sets and a good network. But I don’t think I couldn’t keep up already for a daily grind. The reason why I did not pursue it earlier in my career is that I am not from a target school and I do not have an MBA. lol thoughts?

G’day folks, new in here loving the vibe. I’m a strategy and M&A Manager (Non-top tier) +8 YOE in consulting and a founder with a personal impact, If I get to have an MBB referral for an interview I’d possibly pass out from excitement. Never been more confident to ask for it and chase the dream to join McKinsey, BCG, or Bain please let me know (Happy to share my resume/or get on a chat before you refer me)

Thoughts on CSIQ? It is sitting near all time highs but has not jumped like crazy from pre-pandemic. It’s at a 25% premium. It has solid fundamentals. It may be a solid option after it hits the 50 day SMA.
