I went through this process from summer ‘21 until feb/mar ‘22. Was in Advisory/Cyber and transferred into S&A CCG. Per company policy, I had to wait one year since my start date to go through this process.

The summarized version: you need a “strong” story for why you want to switch, sponsorship/approval from a Partner in the receiving business (i.e., consulting). Once you have that, you can fill out the Transfer form on TOD.

My 2 cents: this process is long, at the analyst level you can’t really negotiate salary, might be better off applying to a consulting job elsewhere (if time and compensation is a priority).

Tips / Lessons Learned
-Never assume that Talent/Business Advisor is diligently working with your transfer. They have competing priorities. So, be intentional about diplomatically following up. If they tell you you’ll hear back and never hear back, follow-up!! If they tell you there’s a recruiter working on your case, ask who’s the recruiter!! (And make sure they’re still at the firm — my case was assigned to recruiters that were no longer at Deloitte)

Feel free to IM if you have more poited questions about this.

You need to network and have someone want to pull you over. I went through the process while I was there and while it was a hassle, it was worth it

Thank you SC1!

I went through it. I was ok a consulting project for about a year. During that time I spoke to team members and leaders about my desire to stay in the practice full time. I made sure to perform well and get their support and then formally initiated a transfer on TOD. Once I did that it was pretty straightforward

Yes u usually need to interview for a transfer to consulting including case studies. If your network is very strong and the leaders know your work first hand u may not need to

Keep in mind that is a faster paced more cutthroat environment than Advisory. Pay is higher but job security is lower in comparison

Considering joining a small 50-person company as the only attorney (prior attorney is retiring). (I am currently in-house at a F50). For others who have done the same path, what surprises did you have when moving from a large company to a small one?

For example, it sounds like I should not expect a document management system, based on a prior post in this bowl. I’m guessing expenses like state bar fees and cell phone are not reimbursed.

Any advice on things to expect (or not expect)?
