Insights on Constangy? I was on the impression that it's 1~2 tiers below Big 4. Is it easy to lateral to Big 4 from there? I'm in California.

I know a few people who have lateraled to my Big 4 firm from Constangy. I don’t think it’s hard to lateral from there - I know my firm has some overlapping clients.

Idk about California, but in my area (Deep South) they are reputable and good to work with.

They are indeed considered a tier below the Big 4, but I personally know of 2 folks who lateralled from there to the Big 4, and 1 who lateralled to BigLaw.

I am also good friends with a partner there who has had opportunities to lateral out to larger firms and turned it down to stay at Constangy.

Again, these are all folks in the South, and idk about other regions.

I think it’s office dependent but three partners at my firm (Big 4) came from there. The local office has gone downhill in the last 10 years or so but it’s Ts definitely possible.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)

Hello!
I was wondering what kind of contractual or other barriers I might face if I apply for one of the big 4 while working on a project with them in my current company.
I am not too involved in the project but I was in a few meetings and went on a field trip with them as well.
The position that I am applying for is in a different team and city.
Will this considered “poaching” if the consulting firm hires me? Would they need to talk to my current employer?
