They both hire from each other to the point of being the same.

I’m at ACN and am hating life lol. Think I’d like to end up FAANG but considering if I need to go MBB for a bit first

Haven’t even started interviewing. But one of the FAANGs has been my client for 12 months so hoping to leverage that to get a full time job there

If you can get FAANG go FAANG. Most people go MBB with the hope of getting FAANg

MBB. I’d rather be part of the revenue generating arm where I’m working - nothing against S&O roles at FAANG because they’re phenomenal; the other option just is a better fit for me and what I’m aiming for.

True. FAANG. Although maybe not Amazon

That’s one thing I got going for me at ACN: a relaxing 9-5 secure Covid job

MBB to start off; it’s easier to go from MBB to FAANG than vice versus

I interviewed for FAANG strategy and ops roles a few years back, then ultimately decided to stay with ACN because I didn't want to work with ex-MBB. I've had fun doing different digital strategy / innovation work for clients since, been fairly happy with my raises, and stand by my career decision.

Cut to now, though I am well sought after for my skills and consistently got 25%+ bonus, I feel I have achieved nothing cuz I didn't get the promotions that I worked for, people have been chosen over me for overseas travel and destroyed my social life. Venting only! :)
