From Accenture in the last few years, only 2-3 Scholars have gone to MBB instead of coming back to Accenture. Even ACN Strat isn’t a good feed to MBB through school recruiting. You likely have a 2% chance at MBB. 50% at ACN Strat (if in MC C&M).

That said, you might as well do the smallest bit of research on this. Start with “management consulted 2020 salary”. It will give you a site with the latest $s. Poets and quants probably has industry stuff.

Other than sponsored students, I don’t know if any my of peers who came from consulting that went back. Most were already making pretty close to (low 5 figs) of what they’d make doing consulting post-MBA. On the outflows side, the tuition and the opportunity cost of going is like a net hit of $400k so financially it’s not close to a winner. A vast majority did tech product management (FAANG).

If you want to move to MBB a better move would be to grind and try to network your way to a role there, especially if you have some sort of niche or technical experience (vs. trying to go in as a generalist).

offered me a title change. I then went
back and thanked the new company
for their time as I felt obligated to give
my current company a chance since
they vouched for me. Now, the
new place is offering me an additional
