Hypothetically, would you move from a Big 4 to MBB if given an offer one rank below where you currently are? Assuming salary is similar.

I did this and would recommend (especially if you’re manager at B4).
I was grateful to have lower expectations as I settled in.
In addition unless you are really tenured in your current level McKinsey won’t match (can’t speak for the B’s)

What firms (if any) come in as laterals? EM at OW but I'm sure some Kearney and LEK have faced similar situations

I wouldn’t. I like the work I do and see a viable path to partner. I also have a strong network. Why give that up just for the sake of saying I work at MBB?

I can understand M1 position. If I was brand new career or in some path with no upward trajectory I would move to MBB. Seems like M1 is happy and has good relationships then in this case totally stay. All the best to u ! 👍🏻

Don’t think it’s kool aid if youre in the S&O and legacy monitor groups. Mbb is easily a better place than D but the benefits don’t outweigh switching costs once you’re already settled in.

GRANTED it depends on the person, their experience, and context

Depends on whats going on in my life and if my work stream is dying.

If im older, I may not.

Actually, Edit: Hard no if the salary stays similar

I wouldn’t at this point. If this was prior to making PMD, I would.
