Don’t have any strong connections in Bain as yet. Wanted to tailor my resume to idiosyncrasies of specific firms - hence the target group 😀

You've been asked? As in M/B should be lucky to have your services?

That aside, I wouldn't recommend joining at the project lead or EM level unless you're already very senior and have a network in place. Most join M as Associates even with substantial experience. Direct hire EM's tend to struggle adjusting without an internal network.

Thanks McK1 - I could have phrased that better. Reached out to a couple of people in M/B and some told me to apply for PL roles while some for Associate (one level down). Thanks for your comments though, my thoughts are the same based on some of my convo/ threads on here.

Maybe ask your referrer? As they know you well they should be able to provide more thoughtful feedback than someone on here?

Good thought. Referrer happens to be a P, so would want some prelim review and refinement before I pass it along to Ps table.

Hello people, how common is a Amazon to PWC move ?

TC $135k Base PWC -$81$ + Bonuses ( 50k$)

Looking for managerial skills which the PWC role avails, and L6 promo doesn’t seem to be happening soon in current role. I’m also mentally stretched. I hear WLB in PWC is just as busy but can anyone confirm if this move makes any sense. Google Amazon
