Would appreciate it if someone can give me information on Strategy&’s FI practice. Currently a PL at BCG. I was just offered a Director position at Strategy& with more than double my current salary. Wondering whether if it makes sense to make the jump.

Does doubling your salary not make sense ?

Can you sell? A doubling of base salary is likely too much to pass up, but if you can't sell, you'll be gone in 2 years. That would be my biggest worry.

My goodness, 2x your salary and it’s not like BCG pays peanuts. I know I’m not at either firm, but I feel like it’s not too out there to go from mbb to s& (at the senior levels) like it could be to go from mbb to big 4 (non s& and eyp). My take.

How much are you expecting at your next level for BCG? Also note that money today is more valuable than money tomorrow.

Don't PLs in BCG make ~250k all in? Was the salary offered 500k?

Just curious

Yeah. It’s more than 500k all in

Do you mean FS? I would switch if you think you won’t be a lifer since BCG comp probably scales higher the farther you go, but I’m surprised the director salary is more than double a PL unless you’re in another geography.

Max is technically forever if you fulfill running projects well but don’t have the relationships to sell - I would say 3-4 years is typical. I will say if you’re long hauling consulting that the B4 value prop is really good (strong pension, etc.) and likely less stressful than selling at MBB

How many YOE do you have? Just wondering when I have a chance of making that much :)

But you aren’t a 1y PL are t you? Are to you close to principal? How can a& really pay all that much more than a top firm as BCG

Haha no that’s fine. I wasn’t distrusting or anything but I am joining BCG as PL so was worried your PL comp was below 300k on year 2 👀

What’s your geography? I was in Strategy&

Many thanks BCG1! That’s very helpful
