Views on a “Capabilities and Insights Analyst - Private Equity” position at McKinsey or “Knowledge Analyst - Private Equity” position at BCG? My understanding is they are the same as Strategy& Deals Strategy/EYP Transactions Strategy junior roles. MBB just has a weird name for the position because most junior level people at the firm aren’t that specialized. Are these assumptions correct? Would I be more of a back end slide printer at MBB versus Big 4? Is the MBB title worth it if so?

This is internal work. Not worth the jump from client facing roles, even in big4

At BCG this would probably be an internal role that probably mainly supports PE DDs. Not part of the core consulting division.

@McK1 and @BCG1 I was told by the MBB recruiter that I would be client facing, but I would only working on CDD projects. I would still present my findings to clients and work with them directly. Was this incorrect? Would I only produce slides for the front facing team to present? I am already in a front facing role in consulting in this area so I wouldn’t want to take this job if that is the case. I want to eventually move to Corporate ventures, strategy, and new product commercialization. They sold it as the same as a front facing general consulting role, but I’m skeptical.

What you’re describing is what our core consultants do on DDs. I’ve seen KT folks work on DDs in a similar capacity to core consultants; not sure about promotions/advancement for KT folks though.
