L7 Consulting, Chicago, $152k, ~4 YoE total. MD in Strategy has offered to sponsor me to move over as Manager. I’ve been told by SMD in Consulting (who recruited me) that I should be expecting L6 SM in the next year, year and a half, and likely won’t get promoted as fast in Strategy. Would welcome advice on how to think about transfer / negotiating compensation if I stay in Consulting. TIA!

Any senior level associates at insurance coverage (or insurance adjacent firms) develop business on the carrier side? If so, how?

FWIW, I am an 8th year practicing insurance coverage and am up for partner in 2023 at my firm. Thanks!

Hey y’all, so I’m in a bit of a predicament: I just got admitted off the Kellogg waitlist but am enrolled at Columbia (both offering the same scholarship money). I’ve always loved the Kellogg culture / campus and felt that it would better prepare me for a career in tech product mgmt (limited prior exp). However, given that CBS orientation is a few weeks away, I’m a little uneasy about suddenly uprooting from NYC to Evanston. Am I really at that much of a disadvantage if I stick with Columbia?

Rallied hard this year, but feeling really burned out. I have a few weeks of vacation left and I really need a reset before another year of chasing my number.
