Thoughts on pivoting to MBB for a single year as an experienced hire, primarily for the resume boost? Unsure of how a short tenure might impact exit ops for someone who knows that they want out of consulting in the not too distant future.

Not sure if 1 year is worth it. 2-2.5 years yes.

This is my situation exactly. Interviewing with MBB with the expectation that I’d give it a go for 12-24 months and then exit.

I think there is a big difference between 1-2 years, tons of people do 2 years, you spend 1 year getting used to the style of work and then 1 year executing at a high level. I think average tenure is like 2.5 years anyway so a 2 year stint is fairly “normal”

I have been running a particularly difficult program for almost a year now and my GCL lead will just nooooott tell me I’ve done a good job. She will rave about work others have done but no recognition for my leadership, ideation, shepherding, execution, etc. I can’t tell if this is just her personally, my need for affirmation or a lack of self promo. Does this happen to program managers often or am I just a baby??
