I have a Consultant level (post-MBA) offer from MBB. I’m currently an Associate (soon to be Manager) at a blockchain VC, and was previously a Manager at a Tier 2/3 consulting firm. While I’m really happy in my current role and believe in the future of blockchain technology and get great investment opportunities, I feel this would be a great opportunity to get the MBB stamp of credibility, and the pay is significantly higher (2-3x). Any thoughts on what you would do in my position?

Stay or do another VC, it is a step back especially if it was a tier 2 vs big 4

Seems like a big step back if you have been a consulting manager *and* had a VC job since to then join MBB below manager. If you already have a T2/3 name on your resume, there is not that much more the MBB name can do for you and you can get the pay raise + more valuable expertise, additional responsibility and better WLB in industry

"MBB stamp of credibility" BS. 3x salary raise, go for it (if you want to do consulting, meaning awful hours, traveling and interesting work)

Consultant pay at MBB is 2-3x higher than Manager at T2? That doesn’t sound exactly right to me

No it’s higher than what I make in my current role at the VC. I took a big pay cut.

Feel as if I’m constantly behind peers in terms of career progression (e.g. MBB/ FAANG) despite having a decent-ish background (tier 2 consulting and now at top tier finance company in strategy role).

I’m really ambitious/ hardworking and I am not sure where to go that would match my goals of career progression. Is it just MBB/ FAANG or is there anywhere else? Any ideas?
