Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?

Not exactly since our bonus % is different than McK and Bain..

McK increase not hitting til year end, BCG hits Sept 1. there's your 2K. Bain raises announced Monday...you can already be sure +/- 2% what the new comp will be.

We're all gonna get paid the same. This is an oligopoly in the war for talent and everyone knows what the others pay. The amount of bull$hit about comp in fb is nuts. It's always been the same across MBB and it'll always be the same...any differences are too small to make a difference in cross offer situations.

I’d expect something like a tweak to bonuses or something else around the edges vs another pay increase honestly. The gap isn’t enough to motivate a change especially when we can just say our bonuses are higher. More likely we’ll be forced to move on comp if tech hiring picks back up

Hello Everyone,

I have received offer letter from Optum Global Solutions India recently and I am seriously considering joining it(I also have offers from Deloitte USI and Verizon).
My breakup annexure mentions 4 components apart from RRP and PF. Basic, HRA, Flexi, Special Allowance. Either the Special Allowance or the Flexi is not included in the CTC mentioned in offer letter.
