While I don't have access to specific salary figures, I can give you a general idea based on my experience in the industry.

Salaries for Business Analysts at Strategy& in the Middle East can vary depending on factors such as location, level of experience, and educational background. Generally, the compensation package for entry-level positions in consulting firms in the Middle East is competitive and attractive.

In the Middle East, consulting firms typically offer a base salary that is comparable to other regions, taking into account factors such as cost of living and market conditions. Additionally, consulting firms often provide performance-based bonuses and benefits that can further enhance the overall compensation package.

To get a more accurate understanding of the expected salary range, I recommend reaching out to individuals who have worked at Strategy& in the Middle East or connecting with current employees through professional networking platforms. They may be able to provide more specific insights into the compensation structure and range for Business Analysts in that region.

Remember, it's important to consider not only the salary but also the overall career growth opportunities, learning and development programs, and the firm's reputation when evaluating a job offer. I wish you the best of luck in your pursuit of a career at Strategy& in the Middle East!

Hi there,

From personal sources I can tell you that base salary for all S&, BCG, MCK, OW, ATK, BAIN for entry-level consultant in the Middle East is around 5,000 USD. Allow additional 2,000 USD for accommodation in some of the locations (ex: Dubai). Big4 is more around 3,500 USD.

Cheers.

Hey there, typically an entry level associate would make around $80k a year excluding food expenses and annual bonus (10-15% of base). All in all the comp is closer to $100k. Keep in mind that there are also promotions almost every year (A1 to A2 to A3 etc.) for associates at S&. I'm pretty familiar with consulting in Dubai so let me know if you need more help.

Hi,

  1. Location is not important. Brand of the company is important. Also, it's important to tell them an interesting story. Double background (e.g. consulting + tech) usually helps a lot
  2. 2. Similar to other companies - you should have a partner / partners in that country supporting your transition. Otherwise, it'll be hard
  3. Glassdoor can help
  4. Product roles will be close to impossible if you don't have prior product / engineering or at least product ops background. Usually, you can apply to Biz ops / Sales Ops / revenue / strategic finance teams

Best
