What are the salary levels in Big 4 consulting? From MBA stats, intro pay seems to be the same as MBB. But on FB, I’m seeing people say Manager level pay is lower than 1st year Consultant salary at MBB. Which is it?

For comparison 1st year C salary at BCG is: $165k plus 20-40k bonus (range), 25k sign on and 5% retirement contribution.

Home grown manager w/o MBA. My base is less than that

There are different scales in the Big 4 for mba vs non-mba hires. Managed Consulted list is pretty good for mba hires

Hello Folks,
Can you pls advise on which company to go for.
R-Systems : They are providing WFH + clarity on the project and team for which I’ll be working upon.
CTS : No clarity as of now, only thing I am aware is that I’m a part of full stack community.
HCL : Some clarity on the project but less package than other two.
R-Systems and CTS are giving same CTC.
YOE ~8
Skill set : . Net full stack + Angular + Azure

Thanks
