Has anyone moved from Big 4 Consulting manager to MBB Consultant/ Associate, do MBBs compensate for reduction in Salary by offering a higher sign on bonus?

Nah your salary is your salary. Most of our Associates are actually doing B4 Manager equivalent work (deciding what to solve, coordinating / organizing work, etc.) - speaking as a former B4 consultant

How do like McKinsey over your time at b4?

Also, I’d recommend NOT asking for accelerated promotion. If you come in with 12 months tenure in role, then that gives you only 12 months to get promoted to Project Leader at BCG.

That’s a tough spot because there’s a lot of internal BCG process that you have to learn and you have to prove you’re capable of leading a team at the same time.

Thanks!

Negotiating a settlement. I’m at $10k, opposing counsel is at $20k. My client won’t go higher than $15k. OC has come down to 17.5k and says his client won’t budge from that. Do I offer 12.5k so we can hopefully meet in the middle at 15k? Is that how the settlement game is played? Seems dumb we can’t just say let’s meet in the middle now and be done with this.
