Find a company you'd like to work for with offices in both US and UK, then apply to the US office and transfer after a year or so? Big 4 spring to mind...

Depends on what you want to do though, and how many YOE you have after MBA - if you want to go down the IB route, it could be challenging if you're too far out

Nobody cares about MBAs in the UK in finance. Maybe in consulting? Best thing to do is transfer over with your existing company and then after a year or two, find a new company. But pay attention to your visa type as an ICT won’t let you leave the company you transfer with.

I recently lateraled into Big Law. Most of my colleagues are homegrown. My shift did involve a big change in practice area, and there's work that I haven't done before that I now have to do.

But, sometimes I feel stupid here, even for work which I have done previously. It's like I'm unable to understand instructions the first time around. And I have seen my colleagues getting annoyed by that. It's like I've become dumb. In my defence, I could say they're giving half assed instructions.
