You’ll always find people who think going to MBB is worth anything. There was a post that an Accenture manager asked if it’s worth for him to move to MCK as at a junior level. He ended up not doing it.

If you want to stay in consulting and if you have a good support system and sponsors at LEK, I don’t think it’s worth it.

BA1, good question. If you can make partner, the reward is great. Your income would be better than almost any industry exits including most tech. However, it’s tough to make partner. If you have a support system and you like consulting, just give your best to make a partner in your current firm.

With other exits, it depends. I don’t know stats but I also have doubts if the move would make a huge difference. If people know consulting, they would respect LEK. Those who don’t know consulting won’t know any company other than McKinsey. They wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between LEK and Bain. In FB, you see even MBB folks complain about not getting a good industry exit after months of search. Part of it is grass being greener on the other side.

Ofc

If you will get paid more then sure
