Hi fishes,

I have been with a Supply Chain and Procurement Consulting firm for close to two years now. I recently got promoted to Sr. Con, I want to switch to a mainstream Management Consulting role with a Big 4. Had a few queries -
Do they have any reservations for such cross function transition?
How's the compensation or hike for a Senior Consultant like?

If you fully understand the processes of the Supply Chain and Procurement industry, it will help you when you are shifting to Banking, Finance, or any other Industry. At the core, Sales, Sevice, Marketing, etc., departments' working processes are the same for most verticals. I never heard about any reservations for any big firm on changing your functional domain. Compensation is based on whom you know rather than what you know. Try to (establish a human connection with employees of Big-4 and understand their inspirations and journey. If you are genuinely interested and share your aspirations and career goals with them, they will help you find a position in the Big-4 that you think is appropriate for your career journey.
