Need career advisories, fishes. Currently at boutique/T3-4 firms (e.g., West Monroe, Slalom, Protiviti), up for Manager this year. Does it worth jumping to T2 firms like S& or EYP at the Senior Consultant level this year? Or just wait to get promoted? Anticipate a 25-30% comp jump but 40-50% more hours (currently about 40, thinking 55-60hrs over there). Long term goal is exit consulting in 5years. Thank you all in advance!

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!
