Agree. I’d much rather work for FAANG, Uber, or Airbnb than MBB. Even if you’re not in a great role, many of those companies have decent internal mobility to move into something more interesting down the road. Do you want to become an MBB Partner or is there another end goal beyond consulting?

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
