For an integrative consultant at MBB, at what stage it would be optimal to move into a PM tech role, considering career/role progression and salary?

Should be before or at PL1 I think. Also, the first role out of MBB may be PgM or Strat&Ops and a full-fledged PM may take another couple of years to come by (unless a mid-sized firm or Amazon in some cases).

Not fully clued into salary progression. You are correct about PM and BizOps being separate paths. Have seen very frequent moves from PgM to PM, BizOps to PM transition can be a lot more difficult but can serve as a way to get foot in the door in tech for consultants.

As M1 also mentioned, this assumes no prior PM experience, CS major, etc.

I had cleared all the rounds in S&P and had salary discussion 1.5 month back. The HR is always saying the management is on leave and will soon get the approval and release offer. Today she shas asked for one more week to release the offer. Should I wait for it or move on. Are they waiting for some other candidate to join before rejecting me at last moment. Only 10 days of my LWD are left.

After multiple rounds of interviews, had anyone ever been offered a job that was a full level lower than the position you were interviewed for? What did you do?

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
