Hi,
If the contract with a big 4 mentions a non-compete clause with a competitor within the country for two years, would this cause an issue if moving to MBB? If so, how to resolve this to enable to a seamless move?
Many thanks in advance.

Does the No-compete from Big 4 to MBB apply? If so, how to handle it?

Hi,
No, it does not apply. You can easily switch the jobs unless you are a Partner. Might be harder in that case

Hi, do you mean in the application process? There's no problem in applying for MBB if you are a big-4 consultant.

big 4 are not direct competitors of MBB, so this clause wouldn't apply in my opinion
The non-compete from Big 4 is in case that if you jump ship to another Big 4. MBB don't count as competitors, unless you are a Partner then there might be implications, in which case you just need to find new clients and don't touch your old client for 2 years.
