Is LEK the only firm to have post-MBA hires immediately managing teams? Do any MBB or other T2s do that, too?

SKP and ZS too I think

While SKP hires MBAs at the “manager” level, they’re rarely immediately managing teams. People who manage teams would more frequently be home grown managers and above, or people being brought it at SM or D level.

MBB doesn’t

Managing teams (as in the most senior person contributing more than 5-10 hours a week to the project) or managing people?

I'm a recent grad who accepted an entry-level full-time job offer with Capital One. I knew that MBB and other consulting firms rarely ever negotiate salary with new grads, so I didn't with Capital One as well. Was that a mistake? What were the likelihoods that they would have raised my salary? I had no other competing offers at the time
