Is MBB all that it's cracked up (by certain people) to be?

What is best way to get in contact with MBB recruiters for experienced hires?

Do tech companies like FAANG hire strategy consultants? Starting at an MBB/T2 next year and curious if tech companies leverage consultants as much as other industries. Part of me wonders if they are in such high growth right now that consultants can’t add as much value, thus maybe a smaller presence. Thoughts?

I exited to FAANG from big4 and part of me is seriously thinking about getting an mba to go to mbb. Does that make any sense?

If I reschedule a first round with an MBB for a following week, is there any chance of them moving forward with other candidates ahead of me in the interview process?

What's a median salary (considering all US employees) for big 4, Accenture, MBB and FAANG? Is 200k for big 4/ACN, 300K for MBB, 400k for FAANG a good ball park estimate?

Negotiating an offer with MBB. How should I negotiate for unvested RSUs? I have about $400K with a vesting schedule over the next 3.5 years. Thank you!

I am hearing that MBB is pausing majority of the interviews - should I be worried about my offer getting rescinded? I luckily got my offer a few months ago and received my signing bonus already.

Is IB or MBB more difficult to land?

Just got another rejection... Is exiting to FAANG or MB really this hard? Trying to go tech.. or mbb, but not getting anywhere. I have 2 masters (mba, ms) from top schools, been in consulting for over 10 years, I am confident that I know my stuff well..but still I keep getting rejected. Interviewed with Google, Amazon, Cisco, McKinsey, and a few others and every-time there is something that is not a match... are the hiring managers looking for like 100% match? That will never happen!!!

MBB folks on H1-B who recently switched to FAANG - did you run into any issues with visa transfer? My transfer has been filed and I’m a bit nervous about USCIS’ perception of consultants and the current sentiment around H1-B visas.

What is first year MBB partner comp? Was told it is significantly lower than the US. How does the comp change year after year?

Does MBB have restrictions on what stocks you can own?

Does MBB ever let people specialize in Life Sciences right off the bat at the post-MBA Consultant level or do you always have to start out as a generalist?

Graduating senior. Have choices between MBB and SWE at FAANG. Not sure what to do. Long term I’d love to be in a small startup or a leader in a tech company. Not sure which path is better for that. Any thoughts?

MBB folks, I’m a Product Manager (non-tech company) and interested in working at MBB.

Which level/role does MBB can offer me ?

Hi Sharks,
Looking for opportunities/referrals in MBB in consulting/project management role.Requesting support .

Pre-MBA at MBB — Have worked on a few DDs but have not touched the model workstream yet. Any advice on how I can best discuss my “deal” experience in PE interviews despite that? Thanks in advance!

Has anyone left an integrative MBB role for a more technical data science role? Has that helped increase the comp/wlb ratio?

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 is equity track for a partner?

Want to buy a 60k sports car, have the cash to buy it outright but have been leaning towards putting $30k down and financing the rest over 3 years to keep the remaining cash liquid. Logically I know paying for the car in cash and avoiding interest is the best move but I believe why not leverage the situation?

I know the nyc office doesn’t have any spots available but does anyone know if the recruiters can switch it after I’ve already accepted the boston office?
