I know a Deloitte SM who joined as Sr. associate level (one level below PL level) . Ive also seen M2 joining at PL level. Unless you are a tenured M, likely at a sr. Associate level. No harm is shooting for PL though :)
Consultant (MBA or ~5 YOE) is 1 level below PL (more than that, plus managing teams)
BCG folks can chime in. I think Principal is equivalent to Director in PwC or SM in Deloitte
Project Leader. Now, will you, the Deloitte M, get hired as a PL is a different story.
Lol senior associate probably.
PL is roughly equivalent to Manager, BCG doesn’t hire to promote so that is the level I’d expect
