Bain & Company I'm in tech consulting and I see many of us going into management to do strategy (not specialized or tech!) but looking online on MBB's, many of what you guys do in the (under manager level) are doing a lot of applied mathematics for KPI's etc. and 30%ish interviews/stragety creation. Can someone share their experience? I would just like to know day to day. McKinsey & Company Boston Consulting Group Bain & Company

I have been talking to a recruiter for a little over a month about a position. I let her know out the gate that I really wasn’t looking to change jobs, but she just kept wanting to continuing the conversation. I didn’t have 2 interviews with the hiring coming and they know that I am not really looking to make a switch. They are now working on an offer letter and I know they’re going to offer me more money. I’m having my annual review this week. Any advice on how to handle a) job offer b) review?

At what point do you draw the line on WLB? Working insane hours on a long/term project with what feels like no end in sight. It’s not sustainable but clearly expected. Could you get fired for drawing lines in the sand and saying (example) “come 8:30 every night I’m logging off”. That’s a 65 hour work week as-is but I currently am up until midnight working consistently. For context I’ve been rated as a strong performer consistently and am not new to the job so it’s not a lack of understanding.
