If a consulting firm only has 25 people in my region’s office, and all of them come from the top school of the country, you would agree with me that my chances of getting in are very slim even if I have MBB experience (less than a year) and a senior manager referrall? Just need people to break my dreams so I don’t get let down lol

Bonjour ici !
Je suis un consultant italien avec nationalité française, j'ai été récemment contacté par une MBB et j'envisage de m'installer à Paris depuis le Moyen-Orient où je travaille actuellement.
Y a-t-il quelqu'un qui aimerait entrer en contact et me parler de son expérience?
Merci beaucoup !

Is MBB and management consulting losing its value among young people as employer? Since i noticed majority of young people currently want to work for FAANG, startups, crypto, Unicorns, want to open their own things, etc. I guess in 2000s and 2010s consulting was a top choice for graduates. But what about now? Would love to listen to your thoughts and observations on that one

Which would you rather? Internal at MBB or client-facing at Big 4/ACN?

Is working at MBB more challenging (higher performance benchmarks, lesser leeway, etc.) than T2 shops (OW, LEK, EY-P, OC&C)? Would be great to hear from someone with experience at both

How many of us desis work at MBB? There are a ton in tech consulting in various firms but want to see how many are doing pure strategic gigs at MBB.

What's a median salary (considering all US employees) for big 4, Accenture, MBB and FAANG? Is 200k for big 4/ACN, 300K for MBB, 400k for FAANG a good ball park estimate?

What would be the life science career track with the highest comp and fastest progression for someone without a technical stem degree but with a M7 MBA and transaction/deals consulting experience? Am I right to assume it would be MBB?

What would you all say are the best consulting firms to work at in the federal government space? I’m not sure how many “prestigious” firms (like MBB) have a significant federal practice at all.

Does anyone else find it absolutely hysterical that people group MBB/FAANG/PE/VC for the prestige-oriented folks and they never include BB IB 🤣

Anyone got the skinny on Alix consulting?

Got pinged by a recruiter for an MD role in digital transformation

He claims they compete with MBB and Alvarez.

Thoughts?

Do you always need an MBA to get into MBB?

Heard that partners at MBB that focus on public /social sectors (higher education institutions, government, non-profit orgs) get lower salaries than peers. Is that true and by how much?

Would love to get insight into the level of attrition that you see at PE firms.

How many new analysts/associates can I expect for a GE fund to hire each year? I understand each firm/office has varying needs, but I'm struggling to wrap my head around why anyone would even consider T2 consultants, even at the consulting-friendly shops.

Not enough MBB consultants interested in PE to fill all the ex-consultant spots? Personal goal is to build a fighting chance to exit into GE or MM PE

What level do managers/PLs from MBB and T2 firms typically come in at for Strategy & Ops roles?

Any associate roles available in MBB life science consulting?

Anyone looking to remotely case over the next month? I'm a month out from an MBB interview

How do I say to my counselor, "be prepared to see a big fall of my utilization because of things out of my control" without sounding like complaining or having a lot of negativity?

Hi all, I just finished Day 10 of the Knopman Marks SIE prep course. I’m beginning to grow very worried. I feel like I’ve retained nothing as I have severe ADHD and watching the videos for 7 hours straight nearly I literally cannot focus that long. I just moved recently and day 1-4 were okay, but I’ve taken adderall for years by Rx and when I went to get my refill I was told I couldn’t get on since doc was out of state. So I had to solve that which took 4 days. I had mild-severe withdrawal sympt
