I have spent 8 years in consulting, focused on public and social sector work. Currently a senior manager at pwc, but I do feel like a change. BCG have published a role as a practice senior manager today, which I am interested in but know little about. BCG folk…would value your insight / reflections on the BCG practice senior manager roles, their day-to-day, pay and progression, how they are perceived internally, plus general reflections on the pros/cons of taking a role like this. Thank you.

Practice manager is way more senior than a PWC senior manager. PWC senior manager pay is similar to Associate MBB pay in Europe

BCG Senior Manager isnt a consulting role - its a BST role. The PA SMs help run things (including overall "strategy") for the PA and while the consulting toolkit is helpful it is a BST role at MSD2.

At BCG there are 3 cohorts of BST (business support team), MSD is the "middle" one, Manager, Senior Manager, Director. These are MSD1 MSD2 MSD3.

Some Senior Manager have teams of 5+ reporting to them, others have nobody reporting to them

It is very tricky to get to Senior Director (or Executive Director) and is incredibly function relevant which is the "D" cohort above. It entirely depends on how the role is physically scoped, you're very unlikely to simply get promoted to SD based on tenure etc.

What is your pay at PwC and what type of work specifically do you do?

98k salary plus bonus, car allowance etc. Public sector transformation.

Has to be Europe
