Would MBB firms ever pay for your MBA tuition if you got your MBA prior to joining? Like if you agreed to stay on for X number of years and they pay down your loans. Does that happen?

No

Not A1, but yes - sure.

Comp is very highly standardized at MBB, and that includes tuition repayment.

Only wiggle room is on signing bonus, but that wouldn’t be anywhere close to cost of tuition. (Sorry!)

No

Zero chance.
