It’s the Principal and fake Partner at BCG

No actual difference in terms of their authority, job description etc. Kearney’s culture is in fact very partner driven, and partners usually don’t treat APs any different than Principals. Point of the title is: It is not easy to become part of boss club so if you spend a few good years as principal, they’ll grant you AP title so that you can feel and sell better externally

Hierarchy is overt between Partners and others. Partners make all decisions and treat their subordinates as people under their absolute command regardless whether they are Principals or APs.

APs are partners externally, i.e. in client interactions and on their business cards, LinkedIn profiles, proposals, email signatures and whatnot it would say Partner
Yet they can't legally sign contracts and have same rates as principals

Helo everyone,

I have put down the papers from infosys and my LWD is near . I have to choose between DXC with 22 LPA and TCS with 18 LPA . I am a mainframe developer with 11 years of experience.
I have asked TCS to revise the salary but that seems unlikely that they will match the difference.

I am a mainframe developer with 11 years of experience.

Question for my friend at KPMG. Her MDs and Partners have been directing her to eat her hours. If she charges over 45 hours she will get emails from management and when she charges over 65 she got a call from a PPMD. I work at deloitte and have never been told to do this and thought it honestly was illegal. Thoughts? It doesn’t seem right that she’s having to eat those hours and feel scared when she’s working til 10/12 every night.
