Is moving to MBB implementation a bad idea? would it eliminate the opportunity to pursue Big4 partnership to take a backseat at a strategy firm?

If it’s M, it wouldn’t be “taking back seat”. The track is the same as integrative, fully electable to partner and is the future of this firm. It’s very seamlessly integrated with the integrative track - most people have mentors and sponsors across both.

Almost no one does only strategy work these days. If you do a strategy piece and it doesn’t materialize into something bigger, that’s not considered a good thin lol.

We don't have an 'implementation' track.

Would love to know more about this too… looks like they don’t have a partner track within platinion.

I recently got a job offer from a company I used to work for that has a great work/life balance and culture but has a slower track to get promoted. My current employer has a not great work/life balance but it’s much easier to get promoted. Currently 5 years into my career currently bouncing between a project lead and a discipline manager… it’s a decent pay bump- 30%. But is it worth giving up the future potential advancements ?
