Hello fishes 👋

Which firm is ranked 4th after MBB in the region? And why?

How is the current market for moving to another consulting firm? Currently at a T3 and was thinking about trying for MBB or T2 next year

MBB folks, I’m a Product Manager (non-tech company) and interested in working at MBB.

Which level/role does MBB can offer me ?

Negotiating an offer with MBB. How should I negotiate for unvested RSUs? I have about $400K with a vesting schedule over the next 3.5 years. Thank you!

Do MBB firms usually give temporary accommodation to look for a place for people relocating from outside?

Which would you rather? Internal at MBB or client-facing at Big 4/ACN?

£50k TC, 2.6YoE working within the change arm of a bank ——- what do experienced fishes think is a good next move for someone like myself? Might want to move into consulting one day with ultimate aim of MBB but also enjoy technical coding work, particularly in credit risk / counterparty credit risk in banking — could use some fresh perspective ; quite confused atm as interested in many things! Don’t mind staying in change management either TIA - appreciate any advise

What is your opinion on moving from Tier 2 (5 years, strategy consulting) to MBB as manager/senior manager? MBB office (LatAm) reached out looking for experienced consulting manager to join their team

Feeling pretty scummy helping with recruiting, when I know anybody who joins will make significantly less money for the same hours compared to a peer at MBB

Feel like it’s betraying the trust of candidates

I have a return offer from a big 4! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience as an intern and have no complaints. Would love to go back.

However, a bit confused if I should try and recruit with MBB’s or if I should accept the big 4 offer already and take the sign on bonus?

Would it be a blunder to NOT try recruiting with MBB’s ? Besides the monetary aspect, what are the other things I’d have to think about?

Is MBB hiring right now ?

Hi ME 🐠s! Would like to know a bit regarding Business Analyst roles in MBB, T2 / B4 firms in UAE. I come from a target school in India (say MBB / T2 hires from my college every year) with ~1 YOE in consulting - based in Dubai. Would the stated firms consider me for a BA role (lateral hire as an experienced BA)?

Do T2 consulting firms (think Kearney, OW) and MBB hire experienced professionals WITHOUT MBA (I.e., is a prestigious MBA mandatory in the region?). I already have a post-MBA position

What is MBB partner salary in UAE?

Base salary for top end Principal in Singapore? MBB / OW?

Any MBB / OW / SKP 🐠 here and willing to share post-MBA Consultant salary range? TIA!

MBB folks, I’m a Product Manager (non-tech company) and interested in working at MBB.

Which level/role does MBB can offer me ?

Does MBB have ‘delivery centers’? McKinsey has a delivery-esque operation in Tampa but I haven’t heard anything out of Bain or BCG.

Hi Account friends! It’s the start of a new year and I was hoping you all could share any book / newsletter / blog / course recommendations that help keep you up to snuff. Feeling a bit stale and like the last year has been a tactical grind. I want to brush up on modern thinking for our industry - the latest and greatest marketing books, strategy perspectives, creative self help, etc. to feel more alive as we start 2022.

Comment your favs and THANK YOU in advance!

My boyfriend and I make 200K combined and live in NJ. We have $1000 in monthly car payments combined. That’s all we owe. Our credit scores are in the 800s. We have 50K to put down on a home. We have done the math and I know we can afford much more but he doesn’t want to buy more than a 400K home. I’m almost positive we can afford 500K and be more than ok. But then he starts to talk about how much kids cost and how we will be house poor and we won’t be able to afford kids. 🤔 Am I insane??

Has anyone heard of Sandbox industries and can share any insights?

Hi ME 🐠s! Would like to know a bit regarding Business Analyst roles in MBB, T2 / B4 firms in UAE. I come from a target school in India (say MBB / T2 hires from my college every year) with ~1 YOE in consulting - based in Dubai. Would the stated firms consider me for a BA role (lateral hire as an experienced BA)?

14 YoE (12 in U.K. & Europe + 2 in KSA). All with ACN. Retail Banking Delivery E2E, Neo-Banks/Digital, M&A and Integrations. If anyone has suitable SM or above openings let me know, happy to share CV. In Riyadh but willing to relocate within KSA, Dubai, Bahrain, Qatar etc.

Done with final interview round of BCG for lateral placements and the HR has asked for a call for communicating final result. Generally they do this for communicating yes or no? Super anxious!

Recommendations for best suits in Dubai? Good quality but not 10k either.

After a decade of experience at big American banks plus consulting, with an American education and passport, how expansive are my options with big and/or small names in the region?

Is McKinsey Middle East not growing as fast as some of the other firms (BCG, Kearney, S&, …)? Haven’t heard of many people interviewing of late, especially for the UAE offices

Anyone here that can give insights into hours and wlb in Deloitte Consulting (finance and performance) in Dubai? Curious to hear honest answer on how much work is expected there.

Dubai people I live in Marquise Square tower and my neighbor is having a party literally every day till 4-5 in the morning- I spoke to him and he apologized and promised to keep it quiet but he didn’t. So I spoke to the security if they can tell them to calm down and the security said that he can’t do anything as it’s the weekend! Is that normal or should they give me a noise compliance and force him to stay quiet after some time.

Got an offer for 180k + 40k bonus for a SC role in Dubai at a T2/T3 shop. Is this competitive?

Is the pace and WLB a lot different between T1 and T2 firms in the middle east?

ENBD is the crappiest bank in the UAE. Thank you
