D1 - M with ACN S&C here. My money is with ACN anyday. LEK is hiring left and right these days and once they realize its more than they can chew, anything can happen. Also, we're looking at pretty strong financials for next 1yr so double digit hikes and bonuses are virtually guaranteed. Combined with faster progressions happening these days due to attrition, the prospects cannot be discounted.

Honestly I’d do ACN for the meaningfully better WLB (with relatively marginal decrease in brand), unless you honestly love working - then do LEK

If WLB is remotely your concern, go to ACN. Its worth taking a 20% haircut on LEK's comp to gain some life. ACN is not good for FS I suppose considering there were hardly any projects in 2018 and many MDs were fired in India office.

I haven’t worked over 50 hours a week but maybe a handful of times this year. Manager in FS. Comp is good and stock benefit is excellent.

I really enjoy what I do, and every time I talk with my friend at ACN strategy he sounds board out of his mind. In fact he tried to recruit here, but didn’t make it through so he’s stuck there.

That said, other than PE (which I dont really consider FS), we don’t really have an FS practice

FS? I'd assume acn is stronger there. But you probs wouldn't get paid as much as LEK...

ACN is considered strong in CMT, Products and LifeSciences. Didn't hear of any special expertise in FS.

Thanks all! Is the WLB at LEK really that bad? What’s a fair estimate for average hours worked per week for both firms?

They’re lateral hiring SACs? My SAC rate earlier this year (if it hasn’t changed) was $115k base, $30k performance bonus, $5k overperf, and of course profit share. Yes standardized by geo
