McKinsey & Company Top of the class (x2 fast track) T2 BA here, planning lateral to McKinsey & Company

Within 3m I am expected to enter Senior BA at my T2 with +30% comp increase, yet this might not happen prior to McK offer. What is the bargaining power of junior laterals to negotiate higher rank, shorter expected time to promotion or signing bonus on entry?

Possible, or wishful thinking and never happens?

You’ve got the right attitude for McKinsey

Why don’t you get the offer first and then we’ll fast-track you to Partner

What are all these fast-tracks yet still a BA? What did you fast track twice from and to?

I doubt you can negotiate higher rank if jumping up a firm. Odds are you’ll join as a new BA, and that’s more than fine.

Congratulations on the terrifying performance. I would go bold and try to negotiate joining as an EM and if not as an Associate with 100%+ salary increase. Outstanding performance asks for outstanding title

Seeing these snarky comments and poor attitudes from your future colleagues, I'd think twice about joining McKinsey.

BA.

You may be able to negotiate a signing bonus, but I would get the offer first then ask.

Zero chance at negotiating a signing bonus, this just does not happen at that level. Juniors are never as necessary as OP likes to think.
