Hello,
MBB’s starting salaries for 2021 MBAs seemed to be at $165K+bonuses, with BCG offering a little more. I have heard rumors that following GS’ salary bumps, consulting firms have been adjusting. Apparently, MBB would have added $20K to the base salaries, and (unconfirmed) Bain was going to give an extra month of compensation for the month of October.
Can people confirm, even anonymously, if this is true?
It seems that the increases might be part of general salary increases, compounded with post-MBA careers becoming in general more lucrative. Is Bain in the US for real giving out 2 months’ pay in October? That would be an interesting move…
Hi there, I am happy to provide my perspective on it: I have not heard from any of my US colleagues about being paid twice in October on a regular basis. It might, however, be the case that it was some form of recognition for the work during the COVID-19 crisis. Still, I cannot say what this rumor is about. I hope this helps, Hagen
