What’s the difference between bizOps and strategy & operations for exit ops. Compensation? Prestige? WLB? Sorry if this is a dumb question or if they mean the same.

Same thing. Google calls it strategy and BizOps but they have two flavours - internal consulting roles and product dedicated roles . Other companies just call it BizOps and have you work on a specific product. The name of the company is much more important in strategy and BizOps for comp / prestige / wlb

Yes to MBB. Yes to MBA only because most MBB have it. The first is definitely more important than the second

Answering as someone not from industry so take this with a grain of salt, but from my understanding they are the same thing.

Thanks! Wasn’t sure if they are the same or different but with overlapping/similar responsibilities

Trying to navigate it myself - I think bizops can include anything from strategy to chief of staff to actual ops/Jack of all trades.

Strategy and ops is much more focused on strategy/analysis flavor of bizops.

Okay thanks for your explanation! “Jack of all trades” seems to be my “skills” from the last 6 years of consulting lol. Strategy and ops is interesting as well. I’m assuming s&o pays more?

I think S&O roles tend to be at the corporate level and BizOps roles tend to be at the BU level. This is based on my very limited understanding having done a few interviews.
