C to M is tenure based. Manager or even late C2 is equivalent to Engagement Manager - you start managing very early as a C and are running entire teams as a Manager. No - Partner at Bain is equity partner.

like

I’m not sure that it’s a propaganda. I realize this M role is team dependent, but vast majority of Ms manage 2 people… and MCK case teams are typically 3. So not very far off. The Ms don’t have full end to end case delivery responsibilities, but still own their workstream fully. Bain SMs manage teams of 4-7 people, that never happens at MCK at EM level.

like

1) C to M is tenure based. As you say, some people skip M entirely and some are only an M for 3-6 months

2) SM probably maps to a PL2 at BCG - this is certainly the case comp wise. Time to Partner/MDP is certainly comparable at that level at about ~5 years

3) No. It goes SM - AP- P. Easiest way to think about it is that standard path to equity partner is ~8 years at both Bain and BCG. Bain has an extra step before SM, but BCG has an extra step after PL (Principal and Non-Equity Partner)

like

- Yes C to M is just tenure based
- I always heard that Sr Mgr is above EM / PL but not sure how true. As Sr Mgr you are fully responsible for the case and have a team of 4-6 people
- I think BCG „partner“ is the equivalent to our „Associate Partner“

Thanks a lot for the response B1 B2 & B3 :)
1. Might seem a naive follow-up but would tenure based transition mean that by default all C will be M in 2 years or are there exceptions?
2. Given Manager seems equivalent to EM/PL, what exactly is the jump (work/expectation wise) from M to SM
3. Understood thanks!

1. Yes as long as you’re meeting expectations (low performers can still be managed out)
2. Bigger team, client, scope, complexity but honestly Bain has you prove you can do the SM job before promotion so very similar between tenured M and early SM

I’m not sure if I can let the interviewer know I’m not too strong with coding. I do want to take up the challenge, and also find out if the role would require extensive coding though. Any tips?
