Is a move into BCGs specialist track from a Big4 generalist track a bad move?

If you want to be a generalist, yes it's a bad move.

If you want to be more specialized, then no, it's a great move.

Depends on “which” specialist track.

While there’s no hard up-or-out, there are still regular progression intervals, so you shouldn’t worry about that. And while you won’t be a partner, Platinion MDs also have a long runway up to Global Lead, with similar responsibilities (albeit less prestige).

My previous comment was directed at D1 and our expert track btw. Platinion don’t have that much (global) travel, it’s more staffing and travel within your system.

What generalist track are you on now?

Agree Accenture 1. The worst tech strategy is done by anyone without implementation experience. I guess that why MBB are picking up resources from Accenture and Big4

I interviewed for the position of Associate Human Capital Advisory role at KPMG. I cleared my first round but for the second round tgey gave me 2 case studies and one excel assessment to be completed in 2.5 hours. I think I messed up the case studies and just wrote the approach and recommendations but didn't include any other preferable portions. Is there a minimum cutoff for these assessments?
