What kind of firm initiatives does MBB require from it's practitioners? Ie here at D we have to work on proposals, recruiting, numerous PRD groups like learning and development , internal working group / chief of staff roles for practice leads etc. I'm wondering if this Kind of effort is also required from MBB?

My firm doesn’t explicitly ask me to do anything, but most of us take on multiple initiatives anyway (basically all of the ones you listed, plus social impact pro bono, social events, D&I initiatives, mentoring, etc. )
