Are non-consultant roles at MBB still seen as prestigious?
Most people here referring to MBB think of consulting roles (client facing). Those roles are obviously prestigious and sought after.
Do other roles within MBB (such as marketing, research, or financial analyst) that are not consulting roles seen as prestigious or is it just another "corporate job"?
Short answer.....no.

Answer this question and you'll have your answer: where do companies go to source their marketing/finance talent? Is it marketing & finance people at McKinsey?
Marketing they might. And don’t think Big 4 would be that much better for financial analyst exits
Marketing - no way. Prestigious marketing roles are at places like Google, FB, Apple, consumer products like Krat-Heinz, AB Inbev, Miller Coors and other big brand names.
No. If you had to choose between a consulting role at ATK/RB/LEK or MBB BO, take the former
Within the consulting universe, itll be the most prestigious back office. Like if your options were marketing for a MM consulting firm or an MBB, MBB would be more prestigious.
But like others said, there are better places to do marketing & finance. However, research can be considered prestigious there.. although the exit options from research are usually also research.
