McKinsey & Company Has anyone done direct to EM from BA in McK US or Canada? What does the compensation look like if you choose to not go for MBA and dive into EMing directly? Heard some horror stories that EM who went directly from BA stays with the BA level base salary until AP level, this doesn’t sound right. Anyone could provide some color to this topic? Thanks!

No, you join the Associate class from one year after you.

2020 BA becomes 2021 ASC for comp purposes.

like

You’re shifted to the associate/EM pay scale at the end of the year in which you’re designated (so base pay doesn’t change immediately, but your total comp for the year will increase) - depending on timing, you may not make as much as an associate-to-EM who joined the same year as you, but you’re definitely making much more than if you stayed a BA.

like

You should reach same total comp at roughly the time of designation (though should note ratings are correlated with but not linked to designation)

The trap for BAs is that your tc is much more bonus driven than someone from the ME track - so you’ll have less cash flow until you catch up at EOY

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

If you’re a manager and you see an employee that wants to branch out into a different department, why would you keep them boxed in for 2+ years?

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?
