It seems common to become partner at MBB in around 10 years (post MBA) or 12 years (started at most junior level). I am wondering why is this period so short compared to other firms, where I've seen people become partner twice the time compared to MBB.
Another question is, does anyone know the elimination rate of each ranking, in the up or out system at MBB? Do all three firms strictly adopt this system and ask specific portion of people to leave the firm every year?
Thanks for your valuable comments.
