I think so. If you have 3-5 years of big brand consulting on your resume to fall back on, trying out Guidehouse in growth phase might be a good move. I might do the same

BAH2, senior associate at most firms is equivalent to senior consultant at Booz. Our senior associate role is completely different and not what the OP was referencing.

How’s their defense practice?

I don’t know, D, ask your firm. GH’s only real defense work left is as your sub.

I left for BAH’s commercial practice. Night and day different.

This sounds a lot like a role a former colleague left. He was supporting remotely and was told gotta move to DC. Client was willing to permit it but GuideHouse said no. So he left for sub. Last piece of advise SC to SA is an insane leap. I would be shocked if you are truly ready for it. Be ready to transition to another company move etc. if you take it. Ask yourself why are they willing to take you? Why isn’t there an associate or lead associate with more experience willing to accept this role? If you are single and ok with taking a huge risk maybe it will work out great, but I would at least be cautious before jumping.

That makes a lot more sense.

I also left Guidehouse
