Is MBB Manager experience plus a top MBA by the age of 30 enough to reasonably guarantee 500k in total comp by age 40 in F500s?

No. There are no guarantees and it is actually reasonably difficult to hit those kinds of numbers at some F500s, and then some of that comp will be equity and it’ll depend on how the equity performs. So like anything else there’s an element of making good choices and an element of luck involved.

That said, your chances are very good. It’s not a long shot at all.

I think at most F500, you’re talking at least Sr Director level, if not actually VP. I’m sure higher end of Sr Director comp can hit that.

With that pedigree, I’d think you’d likely be able to land at Sr Director earlier than 40. If you’re good and can manage the politics from there, VP is within reach, but there’s a lot fewer of those roles available obviously.

All in all, highly doable, but no guarantee. I will say, those levels at F500 are not super easy per se. You will need to perform, but most of it is just knowing how to play the game.

Nothing will guarantee. You also need to be good and willing to put in the work

Depends on inflation

In stable tech F500s, the probability will be higher.
