Had a variety of R&D related internship experience, but wanted to shift towards consulting and strategy based work after college. Ended up receiving an offer from GH in their life sciences practice. Has been an okay experience so far, but based on what I've seen here on FB, I'm getting concerned about my chances of pivoting to a more legitimate firm i.e. MBB, Big 4, etc. in the future. Thoughts?

Get out as soon as you can. I left Guidehouse and switched to a new firm and I’ve had a few clients at the new firm say negative things about Guidehouse to me when they find out that’s where I came from.

Ah I see. Yeah, I'm hoping to gather whatever experience I can for a year or so before making the jump. Hopefully it works out.

Don’t let others fool you- My time at Guidehouse has been great and I have interviews lined up for the coming weeks at MBB. There are definitely solid opportunities out there coming from GH.

This is super reassuring to hear, thank you. Congrats and good luck!

Considering taking a position with a small-cap in the US trying to build their legal department. The title is standard “counsel” although the work would be with the senior leadership team and reporting to the GC in Europe. How reasonable is it to ask for a bump in title - Senior counsel or Head of Legal, US? If it matters, I am a 6th year and have been told that I will be expected to hire a junior or paralegal as we build up.
