question for the strategy& organisation strat group: i have 6 years of experience in org transformation, change and project mgmt, and pursuing masters (non mba)- would you suggest applying for senior associate or senior manager? there’s no manager role open and i would like to build my network but i also think i’m overqualified for SA and slightly under qualified for SM. suggestions? could i negotiate SA comp competitively?

SA - see if you can enter as a later cohort (e.g., SA3)

very unlikely they’d bring you in as a senior manager. I’d suggest applying as an SA and discussing with the recruiter.

They won’t give you Director unless you’re coming from McKinsey or something.

Even if no M role is open, you can ask to be considered for it after applying for SA.

thanks everyone!! could you post the salary band for a S3? also can anyone share details on the interview process?

178k.

What firm? I’d also say that even though you don’t see an active posting for an M role doesn’t mean they won’t hire you in as an M. Firms will bring on talent to ensure strong pipeline of talent.

Just apply to the SA role and inform the recruiter your intent.

If you already have a few years of M under your belt, you likely qualify for their SM role. The SM at strategy&/PwC is a glorified M role and not equivalent to SM at other B4 given that it’s not the role before partnership and doesn’t have any sales targets. That said, they’ll still likely try to hire you in laterally as an M
