I’m trying to understand the allure of MBB post-MBA. The exit opps can range pretty broadly, I think it highly depends on what you can make of it and how well you exit. The pay is ok for the hours worked. If you aren’t willing to go the partner route, are you trying to optimize for career flexibility or pay? What salary does the ROI not make sense for you to pursue?

It’s a way to do an MBA after your MBA while getting strong compensation and a great brand halo. It lets you kick the can down the road on deciding an industry to work in.

Also in terms of exit opps, corporate level strategy roles almost exclusively go to people at mbb / tier 2 firms. I’ve had no luck with them coming from Accenture and m7 mba

How many days/month/weeks does it take PWC AC to generate offer letter once they have collected all the documents? Would be very helpful information.

Hi fishes, what are the chances of Pwc AC bangalore rescinding an offer given the current market condition? The role in my offer letter seems to be pretty generic and during interviews, it didn't look like, they were interviewing for a particular project or team. I have doubts specifically because of HR's behaviour during the whole recruitment process where they never responded to my emails or calls. Is this normal practice?
