Relatively new in Big4 M&A advisory doing mostly integration work with some pre deal DD mixed in. I recently heard L.E.K. Consulting places well in MM PE but don't know much about them otherwise. Was interested if anyone had insight into whether a jump to their M&A or PE groups would be possible. In terms of background, I have an undergrad business degree from a T20 school and graduated a T14 law school as well.

We don’t have an M&A or PE group per se, it’s more that’s just the majority of where our work is

Of course! Feel free to dm if further questions. Can’t promise I’ll know the answer, but can try!

L.E.K is an excellent organization. My friends who are there have spoken highly of it. They claim they are happier working there than they would be at McKinsey. The current prime minister of England is an L.E.K alum. He only worked there for a week, I presume to get the free swag at orientation.
