Was wondering if the ppl here who lateraled out to intl firms did so at what stage of their PQE? And if there is anyone here who lateraled out at an equivalent PQE (1.5 to 2.5), what advice could you give me?
Go for it mate. I jumped to an MC (probably the same firm you're going to - only one MC pays 14+ for NQs) at around the same time last year (I'm 2017 called). Honestly, you won't feel inadequate at all - the big4 generally provide good training. I personally experienced a culture shock as everyone at the firm is exceedingly friendly and willing to help. You wont hear any shouting or screaming (unlike in some of the big4 teams) here!

Plus your annual package will be the same as a big4 JP heh.
