Entry-level salaries MBB and Tier 2 Dubai

Hi all,

As I am applying to both MBB and Tier 2 consulting firms in Middle East, I am wondering how retribution changes among companies. I heard that MBB+S& have an average salary of $8k/month, while Kearney, OW, ... around 6k/month. Is this actually the case?

Hi, I know that OW and Kearney are in line with MBB. To have the updated numbers I recommend visiting Glassdoor.
