Is it impossible to move from big 4 to MBB at the same level? Do I have to lose band if I switch?

Typically you lose one level

Lose band gain brand+pay? Totally worth it

Yes! I've seen so many people do that

Rarely same level but hey it's MBB and you get more money

Drop but pay usually is increased

Just stay and work your way into industry.

I would say I’ve seen a lot of people move with same level. But again depends on what you want.

Not B4 but I’m moving to an MBB in a couple of weeks and keeping my level. So if I can do it from BAH, you can do it from D.

Cyber Risk at both BAH and McK, LA -> EM/Expert

Not impossible. Definitely lose a year of tenure best case, worst case lose a band.

Hi all, I’m looking to learn about how one can transition from PwC AC to PwC India.
I joined PwC AC Bangalore as a fresher and have been working here for 13 months.
I was randomly assigned to SAP, but I’ve realised I really want to move away from this and move towards what I originally planned on pursuing i.e. data analysis, I was already well versed in ML and DL with python.
If anyone has made a similar transition, it would be great if you could help me understand how do I go about this.

Hey guys,
I’m currently a quality control analyst in the biopharma/gene therapy field making 72k base in the Houston area.

I see companies (smaller and larger) that potentially can give me that but would it be worth it?

I don't like my job, the responsibilities and tasks aren't right for me or my lifestyle.

A much much smaller (20 people) company offered me a role.

With the global economic situation as is, is it worth the risk to change to a job I know i'd like more with less pay, and potentially less job security?
