Wondering how much a Partner makes in Big 4 consulting? Is there really that big of a difference at the Partner level compared to MBB (starting 7 figure)?

Following. Would also like to hear about where Accenture and Tier2s slot on that continuum.

I would not add public companies to this mix because their total compensation is heavily tied to publicly traded shares.

This heavily depends on service line so it’s going to be difficult to gauge the real difference given the number of variables that impact the compensation.

Don’t big 4 also get a generous pension?

Pensions got significantly nerfed a few years back. It’s not what it used to be.

MBB don’t all make 7 figures in year 1. Overall, the idea was that pensions evened it out but they’ve been nerfed recently. But Big4 partners are generally much less up or out now
