Very unlikely you’ll exit at L6 as a new PL unless you have previous management experience in big tech before BCG. I exited to a PM role at level 5 after 1.5 years as PL

It will depend on your relevant experience, overall YOE, etc. Might be a bit tough though if you’re newly promoted, probably more attainable if you’re 1.5-2yr in PL tenure.

L6 is typically a tenured principal exit, unless you have relevant pre-BCG experience.

If PL exit as L6 then do APs exit as L7/8?

PLs don’t typically exit as L6, especially not new PLs

I exited to L6 (albeit in Finance) as a C2 - it heavily depends on your YOE and interview performance. If you do well I think it's feasible!

That may be a possibility in finance, but you wouldn’t even be considered for a L6 in Strategy as a C2

Have you had to change your start date after accepting an offer and how did it go? I told them I need to give 30 day notice and so I set my start date (incorrectly) assuming the background check and drug screen would take a few days to clear. However, the drug screen is now taking over a week and a half (still not finished, maybe tomorrow). Apparently things are much slower due to staffing issues and labs are backed up. It’s cutting into my 30 day notice significantly. Thoughts?

My company covers in depth results each week, including meetings set/attended, wins, revenue, retention etc. I feel as if evaluating in such depth is detrimental to the psyche, as you never get to “ride the high.” In addition, some weeks are simply slower than others, and it’s not always representative of what the results at the end of the period or quarter will be. Is this not a big deal, and I’m I placing too much importance on it? Or is it beneficial to review results less frequently?
