MBB in Seattle/Portland?
Looking at relocating to the PNW post-grad. Current student at HYP. Any insight on how the offices are in these areas? How do MBB differ here? I know it's a bit different than larger, East Coast/California stuff.
None of MBB have offices in Portland - go read their websites first...
Seattle is a smaller office relative to their larger ones. Since it's WC for BCG/Bain, the cases tend to be more tech-heavy, though you can still work in other industries. Looking at the Partner expertise in each office gives you a good idea of what to expect. Source: roommate in MBB Seattle
When I was interviewing for 2020 MBB start dates it seemed like Seattle offices were growing fast because of the clients there. Firms explicitly said there were only a handful of spots left in the north east for FT recruiting but Seattle had lots.
Why in gods name would anyone want to live in Portland right now
Born and raised 15 minutes from downtown Portland: Zero MBB consulting here and I’m pretty sure theres no BB IB here either. Only boutiques and a couple MMs (for consulting, IB, and PE).
I’ve also been the protests, the city is not “burning down” as you might have been told, it was only a few blocks. The protests have been going for months and someone got shot the first night of a Trump ralley.
Portland and Seattle does have a pretty bad homeless problem. Not as bad but comparable with SF.
