Why would you move to mbb cyber? Assist in strat where they need ideas about how to do security for boardroom? Big4+ACN already do cyber in M&A and a lot of other strat things so I don't get it.

@acn1. Im not sure what op's reasons are for wanting to join MBB cyber.

But MBB firms are well known for approaching all problems from a business first approach. Id be shocked if they didnt approach IT stratrgy issues the same way.

And while yes acn+big 4 are advising c level executives they come at the problem from a different angle. So maybe this person wants to approach the problem from a more business centric approach.

Also...MBB looks much better on the resume than accenture or big 4 if you are looking to make an SVP jump.

Does such a thing as “Bain Cyber" exist? It would surprise me.

Yeah, no Bain

To answer your question. The people i know that had offers to join mckinsey or bcg were all experienced managers or senior managers and had advanced degrees.

Most of them were already making almost 200k before MB. Not sure what they got un the end though.

I also want to RE, which is why money comes into play

@op what is RE
Btw do you have an advanced degree?

@bain1. Are you guys moving into cybersecurity strategy work like bcg / mckinz?

Aside from the name brand of having MBB on your resume, is there any reason why you want to do cyber security there? It seems to me that you don’t know anything about their service offerings or lack there of in cyber security, how competitive in the market they are in that space, or the types of projects you could be on

There’s more to a job/company than rank. Make sure you do your homework.

I’m not saying it’s the wrong move either. You just need to know what you’re after

@slalom Not that I’m aware of. We are “pure strategy"

If you’re hoping to retire early, cyber security may be wrong racquet....

Networking: I’m trying to build a network with MBB employees but I’m searching for roles in another country where I’ve got minimal school connections. Should I start by building a network in my home country and ask them if they can put me in touch with someone in my target location? Or just go straight to people in my intended location with cold requests/emails? Thoughts and views welcome!

What would you choose? MBB (Digital practice) or Amazon PMT?

Background: T15 MBA student, 7YoE as Mech engineer, long term goal is to climb ladder in Tech, married and have a 2year old

Situation: I have a MBB and Amazon PMT offer for summer internship that I need to choose. MBB comes with FT offer, Amazon PMT will most likely result in return offer. If I go with MBB, I plan to exit to big Tech in 2-3 years. Y1 TC for both will be quite similar (around 230k).

Thank you in advance!

Now I am unsure how I convey this to my manager coz I want to stay here but at the same time I am salivating over this new offer and wish I get similar numbers here. Is it worth raising a discussion? If yes what would be a subtle way to do so?
