Highly relative to your goals. Career progression drops off tremendously in tech (at least google) as promotions can take 3-4 (sometimes more) years between levels.
So if you’re ready to hit cruise control and are comfortable with the TC and role being offered then yes sure. If you want to keep on track with fast promo & comp then stay. It’s an $/hr equation but comp will progress much faster at MBB.
AAG, maybe if the total package was getting close to partner level (3-5years away). F, N and G have hiring freezes in place!
Not really possible to answer w/o more info on your goals. If you care about WLB and predictability, FAANG is probably better. Not staying you can’t get by at McK with good WLB if you solve for it but it’s certainly not the norm. If you know you want to work in tech, FAANG is probably better to get more direct experience and network
I worked 8 years as a product manager before joining the firm. If you are interested in tech and product development, product management is a great role for someone with a broad interest in business. Obviously the FAANGs are some of the best places to do product both in terms of impact and compensation.
Curious as to why you made the switch and if you’re liking it?
