Same same but different

Specialist may or may not be client facing. Also probably less hours.

Seems like salary is lower than Associate pathway. 175k - 185k seems likely?

Specialist could be in our Expert Consulting path or Solution Leadership. Any idea which yours is

I’ll know tomorrow

I am an m&a junior at a firm that is generally considered a lifestyle firm (pay below market but target hours are lower unless pushing for partner).

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
