I am a 5y SM at B4 and exploring options between industry, tier2 or MBB. One thing I am not clear about is how the pensions work at MBB after u retire as a partner for 10-15 years with the firm. Is the pension structure similar to B4? Honestly, I have not found any other career that has a better pensions as compared to B4. Is MBB or tier 2 firms have comparable pensions? Thanks.

Pensions are a b4 thing and will be devalued further in the 10-15 years you plan to work.

That’s not what the math of our pension plan shows. It’s quite solvent.

B4 pension is good? Or exit as a partner

Pension is a Big 4 thing, not MBB or strategy.

Guys

Can we expect 80% hike after 6 months in the current organization. I'm not actually planning to move out because of of hike, but because of the project which I got in which I'm not comfortable with. I'm interested to stay in the organization. But my supervisor said I have to stay in this project for atleast 5 years and HR asked to stay for atleast 2 years which I feel would loose my career.

Kindly provide a solution.

I received an offer yesterday from JPMC.
I want to know when can I expect details about relocation benefits from HR. He took all the details about relocation 3-4 days before releasing the offer letter.

Will there be a separate relocation benefits email in recent coming days or it will be taken care of at the time of joining?
Thanks

Why do pharma companies rely so much on consultants like Axtria and ZS ? What I feel is Pharma companies mostly hire them for data cleaning. I am currently an intern at a top Pharma company and I see in meetings that my manager tells these consultants the idea and view he wants in deck and they(consultants) basically do data cleaning and come up with pretty slides. I don’t see any “consulting” part here. Why can’t these Pharma companies make their in house team for these things ?
