If you’re passionate about law then go for it but don’t do it because of comp. You’ll be much better off going up the ranks at BCG.

You can Google this but Bay Street salary scale is notoriously low compared to the US market and was something like 135k - 155k - 180k first three years last time we checked (not counting a year of articling).

All the Canadian Bay St firms pay similar save for a few outliers but with some variation on bonus. All the major US firms including “market bonuses”. You can see the scales online.

60k for articling

Just scored 700 on my GMAT and I feel like a bag of crap. For reference, I put in 300+hrs into my studying, which is overkill but the course I signed up for took this long.

I wanted to use this to strengthen my app to BCG as an experienced hire and possibly for an MBA in the future.

For the MBA programs I'm looking at this score is fine but is this a score that can help my BCG app in a MCOL Canadian city?

Curious to know what you've seen as working to non working dollars split in Canadian agencies. Reference any specific brands (or categories) if you can. I'm used to seeing the conventional 15-20% split for non working (production dollars only, not including media budget, agency fees) but are those days gone now with the takeover of digital (vs traditional) ad placements?

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either.

So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
