Is Strategy& Deals Strategy, L.E.K. Consulting , Oliver Wyman, or EY-Parthenon better? I have offers from LEK and Strategy& as an AC and am curious which firms are better for PE/VC exits, prestige, and experience. I want the best exit opportunities possible.

PLEASE Rank

Can you elaborate on the placements

Do you value WLB? If so the ranking might be drastically different iykyk

If WLB matters as noted above, LEK should be below absolute zero.

Your ranking is going to vary versus being a general catch all. Also, are you looking for investment roles in PE or OPs roles? Oliver Wyman is stronger in Financial Services and areas like Fintech , LEK strong in Healthcare, I work at S& so I have a bias and think we’re better than EYP but I think EYP may be better with middle market PE funds.

like

Yeah I just don’t know and probably just want to say S& is better because I’m here lol. When I hear OW , I think FS so they probably have the upper hand.

Op EYP lost prestige since their debacle. LEK gets a horrible rap lately. I’d focus on OW or S&, but try again to get into Bain …

I have such a hard time believing that. So many BCGers leave to PE, it’s absurd.

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!

I was listening to a Mufti Menk lecture yesterday on this topic. Surah Nashra is also about burdens we bear. Within this Surah,Allah SWT speaks about how He is the one that granted the cure, purity, and strength after the backs were about to break. Allah SWT takes us to this point to refine us. We never know our capabilities until we are tested and challenged. This is when we realize we can do it and we can get through it 🫶🏻! IA you got this 🫶🏻!

Hi all, I have about 7 years of professional experience but only one year as a Customer Success Manager. I work on mid market accounts currently. I love my job, but would prefer to support a more robust platform that will allow me to add more value for my customers.

I’d appreciate your thoughts on what compensation you might expect for a CSM transitioning to a new company with one year of experience.

To clarify, I don’t have an offer yet, I’m just looking to make a move.

Thank you!
