Bain & Company I’m a PhD student looking to start in consulting and am looking to connect with other PhD/ADP consultants that went into consulting to learn more about the experience and how to prep for case interviews coming from a non-business background. Especially looking for advice on McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, and Bain & Company
I have been reading a few articles talking about how FAANG isn’t as lavish as it used to be. My first question is if that is true? If it is true, my second question is what companies out there have the pay, benefits, and perks like FAANG? My last question is if it is as difficult to get into those companies?

It sounds like you went for your MBA directly after your undergrad. If this is the case - the salary is somewhat ok. You won’t get the MBA salary that others are talking about. Typical MBA position and salary is for those individuals that have pursed the degree after years of work experience AFTER they have finished their undergrad. It looks like this: undergrad -> Avg 5 years work experience (after graduating) -> MBA.
This is 100% fact ^
I wouldn't take this offer unless you can negotiate for something higher. Do you have any other offers in hand?
U must b non target af
Thanks for the reply! Yea I’m only 24 and worked only for a year after my undergrad. I know that it’s gonna be hard to make 100k+ unless I get in some top tech companies and come from an elite school. I just hope my salary can hit 100k in three years when I’m older.
What was your undergrad
Hospitality management, and I had 3 years of full time hotel operations experience during my undergrad
I can’t be the judge of that for now. I’m relatively new to the company and the department so I’m not quite sure.
Not really, I didn’t really apply for many positions and this is a Fortune 500 company. So I’m more looking at the opportunities to get promoted in the future since I don’t have many analytics experience. This would be a good starting position for me I guess?
If u go to consulting you’ll make 150
Yea I tried the big 3 but they all rejected me lol
Go to others then
Would you elaborate a bit more olease
Go get another couple offers first, then weight the pro’s and con’s between the companies. Don’t allow yourself to get screwed by taking the first job offer.
Take the money then job hop, some of these consultants wont tell you they are going to be working double to triple amount of hours you will be working. Also don't let an MBA go to your head, I have known multiple friends and colleagues with MBAs and I make more than them. It all comes down to skill set and knowing how to negotiate.
If you said that it is a Fortune 500, and it’s a recognizable firm, and you haven’t had a real job yet (ie with a company that other professional would know and be somewhat impressed by, it sucks it’s this way but I don’t make the rules), then take it! I left my first job after 8 months for a 10% raise. Left 18 months later for. 40% raise and got another 50% raise at the same company a year later. Build that resume and make moves
I say take it.

This salary is fair for the industry rate for a marketing analyst — actually above average if you include what smaller companies would pay for this role (avg. would be around 45-55k, but the 60-65k range is what larger companies or a good negotiation can get you). This is an entry level position but if you got your MBA straight out of undergrad then it would be relatively harder to get a higher level role without existing marketing experience. If you want to work in marketing analytics then it sounds like this a good place to start especially since it’s for a F500. Just job hop your way up
Thanks y’all for your takes
I think the offer is fair.
I would ask for more. Always negotiate. The worst they can say is no.
65k post mba? Cmon man
