How often does MBB hire experienced hires for BA/Associate or Senior BA/Senior Associate roles? Currently have 1.5 YOE at Big 4, M&A practice.

Hi Fishes,

I work at TCS for Apple as an ML engineer, I have overall YOE of 5.5 years and relevant exp is 2 years, I am serving notice period and I have a few offers from start ups, but looking for opportunities in Companies like Big 4 and FAANG. My expertise is more in Deep Learning , Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing, IF you have any relevant referrals please feel free to reach out to me.

Thanks in advance

I am CA FINAL student, i have done most of my internship into audit but post qualification i want to start my career into taxation( direct & international). Any suggestions or recommendation on whether any big 4 will take a fresher.

I am working hard on my theoretical knowledge before interview.

Also preparing for Enrolled Agent USA, IRS

Currently at Big 4. Have offers for a PL/Principal at MBB and for a VP role at a Fortune 20 company. The VP role is more interesting and comp a bit better but I’m told would accelerate faster at MBB. The initial plan was to end up at MBB. What’s the best for future flexibility?

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

Curious the pay difference between SAP and partner consulting firms. What can a S4 HANA cloud or OnPrem consultant expect to get paid at a place like EY or another big 4 firm with 3-5 years of experience in PMO/Functional Consulting roles with an MBA?

For those who moved to AUS with big 4, which visa did you got? How long it took to process?

Can anyone speak to how the hours/WLB (or lack thereof) compare between B4 and Big Law?

Time taken to become a partner in any of Big 4's?

As per my knowledge in EY it is 15 to 20 YOE

Let's post salaries, I'll go first senior 2 ITS 83k big 4

Laterals to Deloitte Cyber from other B4: Can you describe your interview process and what each one entailed? TIA!

Curious how MBB's cybercapabilities are viewed within the cyber world. Experiences, thoughts?

Which Big 4 is “best” for digital consulting for asset & wealth management clients?

Do people know if the big 4 are all wfh and onboarding that way as well? Or have they started setting return to office dates?

Experienced hires who have recently joined Big 4, how rough has the transition been?

How difficult is it to move between Big 4 M&A Deals Practices (i.e. PwC->EY, KPMG->Deloitte etc.) and when is the best time—financially and otherwise—to make a move post MBA?

Anyone in the Big 4 corporate finance / investment banking groups willing to DM. I have several questions about the position. TIA

Finance Transformation - how do big 4 + Accenture stack up against each other?

Would you recommend leaving for a role at Oliver Wyman? Thanks

How do you transition from big 4 consulting to big law? My clients are all funds, and I do international tax consulting. I have used my connections to refer me into probably 10 big law firms and it’s not working. One most recently came back and said they aren’t interested bc I have no law firm experience. How am I supposed to get it though? I can’t go to lower ranked firms bc my clients are all “big.” … any suggestions appreciated!

Hello les fish,
Des idées de salaires de manager (fixe, bonus, total comp) à Paris en MBB ? J'ai en tête un package autour de 180-200 ça vous semble comment ?

I was on a partner/manager call today and they were discussing the “high” turnover at the senior and experienced associate level. What was shocking is that while ours is about double normal, evidently we are 3 out of 4 in turnover meaning 2 of the Big 4 are even higher.

I want to know whether the Medical Policy of 3 Lac which is given by the company by default in which along with me my immediate dependents like my spouse and children are covered or not?

Is it easier to lateral to another HF/PE firm than to get an initial offer?

Finally received an offer that is not my dream firm, after a year of recruiting, and trying to decide if I should hold out for the perfect offer, or take it and try to move if it winds up not being what I want?

Thanks friends

Waiting sucks. Left waiting for my h1b transfer approval...

Any guidance on evaluation for GS-13/14 level attorney-adviser positions? Matching resume but credentials aren’t insane.

I am new to United Silver and I purchase economy tickets. Is the best strategy to check in exactly 24 hours ahead and switch my seat to an open economy plus seat?

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA

Recruiters. You tell me a range, I tell you it’s low.

Do you think, “he’s trying to game the system?” Or, “if his agency is paying that much he must be doing something right?”

Hi techies

I am a python developer with an experience of 3.3 years. my current CTC is 7 lakhs.
How much salary can I expect If i switch now?

Would you tell your supervising partner at a biglaw firm that you are disappointed by the amount paid to you in the year-end bonus? If so, what's the likelihood that doing so would result in any further pay/anything good?

Pwc ke fyde in this comment thread!!

I’m in FDD… I know I signed up for this but there’s something about the anxiety that comes on a Friday knowing that we still didn’t get access to VDR .. and how that anxiety grows as you enter the long weekend knowing that access can happen at any minute (or not) and you have to tippy-toe on the idea of potentially cancelling on your memorial weekend plans. I know the unpredictability of our job but phew 😮‍💨

NPR How I Built This on Sam Adams (10/31/2016) is excellent. Just wanted to share.

Dear All Fisbowls,

I have a query. Request all of yours suggestion and if you have done something similar to this please share.

You have resigned and have offer in hand suppose 15 fixed.
Meanwhile you get another offer but they will give around 17 fixed.
I am thinking to quote my in hand offer as 17 fixed with changes in it and share it with them.
So that they can give me around 20 fixed.
Request to share honest detail here.

Hi everyone, I have a question. I am currently in the middle on of an interview process, where I am quite confident that I will get the job... but I want to work for another company that has contacted me 1 week ago to interview but hasn't scheduled the interview yet....

Meaning that their interview process is probably going to take longer... how should I reach out to the company and properly let them know my situation?

Hi Fishes,

How many days does TCS takes for TR round results

So… 3.5 year relationship came crashing in Jan due to covid depression, work burn out, lockdown etc. We have stayed in contact and recently he has come around to apologizing and considering getting back together. However he also revealed he started seeing someone casually 4 weeks ago and technically is cheating on her by meeting me for coffee and to discuss this. I’m upset that he’s dating others but shouldn’t be right? I mean, I did the same. Still hurts though. And I told him to sort that out

McK 🐠 can you work in PEPI practice in any office? Anyone in PEPI in the Midwest offices willing to chat? I’m currently in a T2 firm PE practice.

Just got out of one of my final round interviews. It’s been over 8 weeks of prep. Got a little nervous and may have messed up on the case, PEI went okay. Have the other later this week. Trying to focus on that but difficult knowing how this performance would impact the outcome. Has this happened to anyone and they ended up getting offers? Searching for success stories or tips.

How much better are the exits ops from MBB vs T2. Don’t think I want to do consulting forever. But close to getting offer to lateral. Do I take it and exit in 1-2 years or just exit from T2? Thanks 🐠

TIA!

If you accept a job offer from a T2 consulting firm then get MBB and decline after rejecting 1 can T2 legally hold you back from moving to mbb?

Those who exited MBB, what were your options? I know I don’t want to stay in consulting and feel like trying industry soon. Most of my background is in finance and strategy.
