Manager salaries - what are the set ranges at the strategy firms, eg mbb, ow, S&, ATK, LEK. And how much at strategy big 4 practices ? Very hard to find info on that. Also bonus points if you can...

Good luck with this. There are some good info online on managementconsulted.com and Glassdoor

In general starting base salaries follow this path:
Post-mba: $145K-155K
Manager level: $175-185K
Senior manager level: $210-230K
Partner level varies a lot: $250-300K

That’s just for base and for entry point. Obviously someone with 2-3 years in a role will get paid higher.

Bonus tend to higher for MBB (30%+) compared to other firms (10-20%). I don’t know much at the partner level

Share actual bonus ranges. Looking to make a switch from a boutique but want to see what market rates are

Info about alixpartners would be gr8 too

I’ve heard McKinsey em making like 220 base. Is that not true ?

@op including bonus definitely. I don’t that’s for just base salary though.

At m1 what would base be for a first year EM at McKinsey. And how much for say a third year EM right before promotion. More interested in base range than others

@op there I don’t think there are EM3 at McKinsey. You are either promoted or fired. You stay only 2 years in the role (maybe 2.5 years)

Base is 175-185

So at m1 would a second year manager then make like 200 base or less

It starts at 175 and is 185 in year 2, beyond that you’re not an EM anymore
