Hi! I am asking for a friend in tax - “I’ve been in the AWM tax practice for 7 years (4.5 yrs at pwc and 2.5 at private) and am looking to switch to EY’s national tax team (passthrough group). How do they conduct an interview and how technical can it be? Also any general thoughts/ experiences on boomeranging back to big 4 after private? EY PwC

They do but they will almost always knock you down a grade because a Big4 Mgr isn't a MBB manager.
That said an SC at MBB gets paid more than a M in Big4 so unless you are fixated on title progression that shouldn't be an issue.
Word of warning though, in MBB general consulting skills are highly prized, specialist tech skills aren't - almost the exact opposite mindset to a Big4
C1 - Not true. And I’m speaking as someone who worked at D and on the client side with McKinsey.
MBB has very impressive partners and junior staff (I include managers in this group) who have no idea what they’re doing because they are generalists. As a result, McKinsey Ms get their hands held far more than you’re leading on.
As for B4, your comment is generally true however it obv depends on the area of the business.
