Bain & Company Is there someone who made the transition from EY-Parthenon that moved to McKinsey & Company, Bain & Company, or Boston Consulting Group willing to share experience and tips? Senior Director promotions are not looking good over the next few years and I’m interested in learning at more prestigious firm if I do not have a very clear next step

If you are EYP-Strategy or SSG then you might have a shot. If EYP-TSE, better stay at where you are. Very difficult for you to survive at BCG with the skills you have. Most lateral hires from non strategy EYP were let go in a year.

Op - our PIPE group is the best fit for you if you are part of EYP Strategy or SSG. BTW nothing against TSE. But they tend to focus more on PMO but less problem solving. That’s my hypotheses of why most of them struggle as lateral hire particularly PL and above. But definitely a subjective view.
