My MD offered me an expanded role with more responsibility, that he said he would make official in a week right when January started. Since then, he went quiet. I was drowning in work in Jan-Feb and did not follow up on it. I met him for a 1:1 in February and I did not bring it up then (my bad, I accept). I have my March 1:1 coming up and will be bringing it up then. But it bothers me as to why he offered something and then went radio silent. Have I lost the opportunity? Anyone seen this before?

Hello Deloitte PPMD 🐠, I spoke to a D PPMD recruiter recently for possible opps with D. I was told that most of the people at this level will come in as MD, with a possible path to Partnership.

I’ve just went through a very tough interview process at a top BB - the hiring MD wants to call me tomorrow. Is this a good sign?

Additionally, I’m also recruiting for a top PE shop. If given the chance, I’d perhaps take the PE offer, but am afraid that if I receive an offer from the BB, it may expire before I finish the process at the PE shop.

How should I respond to a (hopeful) offer given by the BB tomorrow?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Probably answered somewhere, but I couldn’t find it down the chain.

All the viewpoints here seem to be about equity Partners. How does it differs for an MD? For instance MDs at EY get performance based bonus and higher pay. But it seems like an exec position with higher pay expectations, which I can get at industry. So should I switch firms to get partnership if my current firm can only offer MD to me ? And I want to be partner
