McKinsey & Company Bain & Company Question for Deloitte / KPMG / PwC / Accenture - do people ever work for more than 1 client at a time, or is that not allowed? I think I heard at ZS Associates for ex that it’s common to have more than 1 client so wondering what the trend is across the major firms. (And I guess same question for McKinsey & Company / Bain & Company / Boston Consulting Group)
Sorry if this is common knowledge, I’m still very new to consulting!

For KPMG I have juggled 2-3 clients at a time for probably the last two years or so. I’m a senior associate

like

Only senior managers and above have multiple clients

like

Typically you work for one client at a time until you become a principal. So for BCG it would be associate, consultant, project leader (first management level role) that work for one client at a time, then after PL you start being on multiple cases

KPMG canada and anything from 1-15 at a time in our team. Average is 3-5.

As SM 4 accenture i typically have 2 clients and 1 or 2 'plus 1' = course desigm, mentoring prgm, ERG

Was at Accenture, now ZS.
Accenture- unless you are management you only have one client
Zs- fractional staffing is everywhere

I am at accenture an typically have 2 or 3 parallel engagements, it maybe be a reflection of the marketplace I play in = cybersecurity, cyberresilency

Considering all the bulge brackets just announced 100k base for 1st year Analysts and that every year you go up 5k, that makes me feel like they are trying to lowball. I stupidly gave a salary range during the interview of 110-140k, cuz I was guessing, but I know JPM pays 130k base for the same role. How do I get myself to 130? First time negotiating, any advice appreciated!!!
