Firms that haven’t matched the market comp increase - do you worry that as a result you will lose MBA intern offerees to other firms for this summer? Interviews are now so it’s almost decision time

MBA interns are a dime a dozen.

It’s not about choosing over MBB and big 4. It’s about the perception of the company in the market place for talent. Of course anyone would rather go to MBB over big 4, but when the salaries are the same, people are more likely to join a big 4.

The reasoning is that a lot of people look at consulting post MBA as a 2 year thing. When salaries/bonuses are the same, then the calculus for joining a big 4 becomes “ill make the same in my first year and a little less in my second year” and then you peace out so no harm. When the salaries are also less by 20k in a big 4 vs an MBB, it makes taking the big 4 job much harder because it’s clear that you are a second class consultant. That’s how I view it really. You might as well take tech roles which are easier to get than MBB.

Not asking about losing interns to MBB (I’m sure very few people turn them down), but losing them to other peers in consulting.

My partner got a City of Toronto offer. Salary band is 104-121k. HR asked for his expectations and he said 115k. HR came back with a 106k offer stating nobody on the team makes that much so they cant offer it. Also said she is unsure if there is any wiggle room if any at all. I’ve looked at everyone on the team with the same titles salary on the sunshine list and the lowest I see is 121k. I assume there is an OT component of some sort but also can’t confirm. Thoughts? /negotiating advice?
