Super helpful TY! That's a lot :)

I am in industry now and work closely w/ a BCG team. I was operating at the same level their PL does as a Manager at B4. If anything, the argument could be made I had more responsibility because my PPMD would show up to meetings twice a month whereas BCG regularly has 2 MDPs on 95% of the calls we are on, so the PL has way more air cover.

Think the MBB “bar is so much higher here” mantra is bullshit. Def smarter ppl on average, but it’s all the same thing.

My 0.02 only

Sr manager at accenture is roughly same responsibility as PL but they don’t map exactly

Sr manager at Deloitte is principal at BCG

In terms of level,
Manager = PL = EM
SM = Jr Partner = AP

What are your thoughts on the Scrum Master role? I’ve worked with a few now and out of 5 of them, only 1 seemed to be of any help. Most of the time we have to explain every detail multiple times and they still don’t understand what we’re doing. I feel that the role should be reserved for employees with experience in the systems they work in.
