Hello,

It's really weird, usually the bonus is specifically mentioned in the contract. The percentage and conditions can vary a lot from one company to the other, but every consulting firm has a "bonus" program to reward his employees.

Anyway, if you have friends inside the same compant that receive the bonus, you will receive at 99% the same treatment. I would suggest to talk with HR about it, it's something that you can openly discuss with them.
Feel free to contact me for additional information about specific companies.

Best,
Luca

Hello!

Congrats!

First of all, it would be best for this particular case to talk with the people who are already in that company. Those are the ones who will guide you best.

In my case, Mckinsey Iberia, bonus is not said in the initial contracts -for BAs I am speaking- since it´s linked to the performance after the year. Hence, a "Tracking +" BA will be given more money than a "tracking" BA and less than a "distinctive" BA. Furthermore, bonus is not that big part of the fixed -this changes from associate onwards, when it starts being a considerable amount of money-.

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Clara
