In banking, you have bulge bracket banks (GS, MS, JPM, etc) and also elite boutiques (Evercore, Lazard, etc).

In consulting, the parallel to bulge bracket banks is obviously MBB, but I'm wondering if there are such things as "elite boutiques" in consulting too?

I’m a first-year MBB analyst. My dream role is helping energy / climate tech companies grow (more interested in ops/strategic work than in cutting checks). Are there funds that might be a good fit?

Joining MBB in Oct and wondering what credit card to get.

factors to consider:
•Currently have CapOne Quicksilver (did it for intro $ offer a year+ ago).
•Backpacking Europe for ~6 weeks in Aug, so looking to put purchases on new card. Already paid round trip, but not the intermediate parts.
•Unsure how much traveling for cases, esp w the WFH situation.

Was looking at Chase Freedom Unlimited for $300 offer & % cash back, but curious ab other options. Corp card prob also affects decision.

Graduating senior. Have choices between MBB and SWE at FAANG. Not sure what to do. Long term I’d love to be in a small startup or a leader in a tech company. Not sure which path is better for that. Any thoughts?

Do T2 consulting firms (think Kearney, OW) and MBB hire experienced professionals WITHOUT MBA (I.e., is a prestigious MBA mandatory in the region?). I already have a post-MBA position

Do MBB US accept referral for MBA campus hire? If so, how does it work?

How useful is having worked with the PE practice (deal strategy, CDDs, etc.) of a consulting firm vs any other one when trying to break into PE? I understand it's probably better to come from such units but I wanted to understand in which ways it helps. Is it actually irreplaceable skills vs understanding of sector dynamics vs pure prestige?
Ps assuming MBB/Tier 1 consulting firms

I started a new role about a month ago (exited from T2 consulting) but just got an opportunity to interview with MBB. The resume I sent in is from 3 months back doesn’t reflect this role change. Should I update the firm I’m interviewing with? Or if I get an offer should I explain during the background check process?

I’m a first year analyst in RFA with deloitte and have really hated my experience so far. Both my projects have been a lot longer than they stated and I have learned 0 skills from either of them. I’m really just doing the same task every day and I feel like my undergrad degree is going to waste. I have a couple interviews in an MBB role and a Tier 2 tech but I also want to keep applying to other companies just in case. Does anyone know companies that are in a hiring frenzy right now?

How is performance measured at MBB?

Curious how MBB's cybercapabilities are viewed within the cyber world. Experiences, thoughts?

Hello - moving the NL with my Dutch husband this Summer and am interested in MBB. I don't have a masters (not common in the US), I have my bachelors. Is it possible for me to still get into MBB? Is anyone willing to chat about office culture and willing to give a rec? Thanks!

I’m fascinated by the fact that Deloitte has been hired by the federal government to create a database intended to allow lawyers to search for evidence from the January 6th insurrection. This project probably has some shitty parts but I’m sure it’s interesting. I wish I could get more details on this.

Offer secured! Thanks to everyone in this bowl for keeping me focused on what matters. Peace out consulting ✌️

Have new analyst on the team with an MBA and project experience. After working with them for 2 months it’s apparent that there are 0 consulting skills (excel, outlook, PowerPoint) and they freeze up even on internal calls. They are young and coachable, and I offered to put time into that. However at a company event they made no effort to get to know the team and chose to stick to their familiar colleagues in their home office. I’d like to ask for a new resource but interested in feedback.

Off to the corporate holiday party, 5 hours open bar, cheers bitches 🥂
