Hi all - I just got a senior consultant offer from EY-Parthenon Dubai. Can anyone give me more insight about the firm's positioning in the GCC market compared to other firms? Would be much appreciated, thanks!

Hello!

Congrats on the offer! Even more in this crazy times.

What you mean positioning? In terms of salary and conditions for employees, in terms of fame, etc.?

Cheers,

Clara

Hi Clara, thanks for your reply! What I mean is positioning in terms of perception in the Dubai/GCC market and in terms of salary competitiveness

It's smaller than in other locations. 

But smaller also means more room to grow, faster career path, etc.

So you have to balance the two (brand vs. growth opportunity) and find the perfect fit for you.

Hello there!

It's not among the top companies there like MBB or Strategy&.
I suggest you looking at the reviews from Glassdoor, it could give you a better understanding.

Cheers,

Hi Anonymous A,

EY-P is still very badly positioned in the GCC strategy consulting market at the moment, ver far away from MBB-T2 firms. It is still very much embedded into EY global practice. Same thing as Deloitte Monitor. Only S& out of the B4 acquisitions is very well perceived in the region because of Booz & co great historical presence.

Cheers.

S& is MBB level in the ME region. Bain has a really small presence there.
