Knowledge expert track at McK or Inverto role at BCG? Similar fields of work and would be a lateral move

I’d go inverto. For potential exits and career trajectory - it is a consulting track. Knowledge experts ay mck are amazing, but as far as I understand it is not considered consulting (which impacts bonus, promotion, compensation etc etc). If you are willing to pivot to classic generalist consulting - inverto to classic BCG will not be very easy, but in my view easier than from knowledge team to classic Mck. Anyway - congrats on your offers. Both positions are dream job of many candidates and I’m sure you cannot go very wrong with your choice .

M4 is speaking truth. Knowledge track can be an awesome job if you can build the right sponsorship, but it is a tough road to get there

Interesting proposition, especially since it would be a lateral move.

How long do you see yourself staying in consulting? If short term, I would not see a benefit to making the switch. If looking for longer term, it’s worth looking into the move.

For those of you who made the switch to in house/corporate law, what was your experience like? Did you have to take a lower position to gain the experience or were you able to argue that your soft skills were transferable to in house? I’ve been in litigation for 15 years and I’m looking to make the switch. Ultimately, I’d like to get into Legal Ops, but feel getting some in house experience first would be beneficial.

Received a job offer. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on a concern I had about it. It's an entry level position, and I don't have much experience. The billables are 2040 a year. For billable hours in civil litigation and insurance defense, is 2040 hours for a 1st year associate on the high end in this field for a small or midsize firm? It seems like most attorneys I know have minimum requirements of around 1800. The compensation is around 80k a year.
