How did you make the switch? I would like to know that. I work in Advisory - IFS and would like to switch to Client Services / advisory ?

It’s not hard. Just apply to the job and interview.

Wouldn't the IFS partner block it ?

Your partner doesn't find out until after you've been selected, they could block it but it would take some political capital on their part because you have been selected by the new group and the firm still likes to pretend we all play nice together

Though my current company is an mnc but not that big and no work pressure is there, amazing work life balance. However, there is little to no learning and its very slow, the project is just starting and the client itself is not clear what they want. Do you think I should switch just because its a big 4. Please help me decide. Yoe -3.5
