Moving to final round with MBB. Very confident firm will make offer. Recruiter asked me to disclose comp details. I'm a manager but very uncomfortable with current salary. Can someone coach me here?

Pay at MBB isn't negotiable below partner level. They are probably asking more from a process standpoint. Base and bonus/profit sharing for general consulting staff at C1 is about 200-210k and at manager it is closer to 275-300k. Couldn't tell you for Digital or Mck Solutions but they're probably 30% less. So I think you will see a bump.

Btw - not all ACN MBA strats come in at $145 - it depends on city and past experience. I came in as a manager at $165 in a small Midwest city (not Chicago) but it was because of my past experience and clinical degree. A friend in NYC came in as a consultant at $120K and he had robotics engineering experience. Makes no sense. And this was all in last year.

Unsure about a signing bonus; not sure how we treat that for experienced hires. Also, if you perform well, you'd typically have a lot of flexibility to transfer offices in 1-2 years

OP how is applying to a job in NYC being forced to move? How did you just realize NYC is expensive? Before you get down the path too far, I'd say final rounds have a 10-15% success rate so maybe you won't be forced to move at all...

I interviewed with McKinsey last year through final round and I have to say it was front to back the most positive interviewing experience I've ever had - even though I didn't get the final offer. McKinsey is classy, and won't try to get you on the cheap, I would feel confident that what they offer you is going to be competitive. And if you do get it, I would take it. McKinsey is a better name on your resume than where you're coming from.

Seven senior consultants arrive in a sack
Eight associates sneak in the back
Nine analysts come to work
