Is there any difference in WLB between T1 and T2 consulting firms (in the Toronto offices)? For example, On average, do T2 consultants work/ travel the same amount as T1 consultants in a given year?

Depends on the project type, overall would say slightly less at T2

Would probably say there is more variability between projects within each office than there is between offices

Having worked at both, very little difference between T1 and T2. WLB varies at both for the same factors (your Partner and Manager, local vs travel, due diligence case vs not, etc), but controlling for these they're pretty much the same - have asked friends who have also worked at both T1 and T2 and they have the same sentiment. Big misconception that T1 is more hours. Big 4 is less hours though
