Hi All - Associate Partner / Principal at MBB. Deciding whether to play out rest of my consulting career (whether a few years or longer) in US vs. UK. US obviously pays better, but largely a wash factoring for exchange rate / cost of living. Wondering if spending next 2-5 years in UK would impact comp/ exit ops for exit to US? E.g. lower comp/ perceptions of smaller market experience. Appreciate it!

Comp is definitely not a wash. London is expensive and taxes are high. Upto a 30% hit depending on where you are in the US

Perception wise MBB is pretty much a wash

Exit Opps within U.K. will be marginally less attractive especially if looking in Tech simply given a much smaller market

Though London is definitely worth it for quality of life compared to most US cities
