How does staffing work at Strategy&? Is it like MBB where the next project is always random or is it like the rest of Big 4 where you have to network and partners pull you into their projects?

We have staffing teams but you don't usually use them after your first couple projects. So the latter, it's based on your network with partners and directors

Also staffing at PwC is combined, so your question doesn't apply. Both MC and S& folks are in the same pool, and it's just based on fit / availability.

Maybe don't generalize and depends on Vertical/ GTMs? Speaking as someone who's been in weekly staffing calls for over 2 years.

In HIA Ops, there's no distinction. Project sells and Partners look for resources... As long as your budget can support higher bill rates and it's not a year long engagement, no one even checks whether available resource is MC / S&.
