Senior Manager

Finally I have 2 offers to get out of this place. Both new roles are a step up and pay the same in federal space. One is a very small company doing a traditional SM of PMs role, non sdlc pmo work. Other is a large company as a Program Manager, overseeing a staff of ~25 doing sdlc- some agile. I eventually want to go big tech for an IC role. I feel like the smaller company position is more aligned with IC role. My only scare is I will be out of touch on emerging tech and practices.

Ok guys help, got an offer from EY FAAS for Senior Manager role to be under their AWM practice - freaking out a little hearing hours are awful.

Thanks much.

5YOE in Analytics consulting Received an offer from a mid tier Bank for a Senior Manager of DS role within internal audit where I’d be leading all data related projects (dash boarding, ETL, analytics) for their IA practice but not performing IA. Offer is 195k TC . Been targeting tech but have failed at AMZN, G, PayPal, Coin for roles. Do I keep chugging along or take the TC bump and Title bump and try again in the future? Thoughts?

Currently an Associate Manager (which is the level below Manager in ACN Tech) and applied for a Manager role at big4. I have 7.5 YOE. I’ve completed all interview stages already. The salary I’m demanding is too high so they are considering offering SM after I come back for another interview. Bad move or good opportunity?

Fish, would like thoughts on this exit Opp: Applying for a Product Owner position at a Pharma company for one of their Salesforce orgs, which is my long term goal. However, the position is at M level and high end of salary band is $160k base, which is the level/base I’m at now. I’ll be up for promo to SM in the coming months, so wondering if I’m selling myself short going for a lateral or possible step down for the role. Ctd

Accenture Strategy folks - what is the typical turnaround time on if you receive an offer (versus if you are notified they are going in a different direction)? Interviewed for an SM role late last week and just wanted to calibrate on timing. Thanks!

SM at S&. Is there any realistic path to an investing role, or am I too senior to pursue that opportunity?

Currently SM at Deloitte - well rated - received a decent hike in pay putting me in the upper 200s / close to 300K with bonus included. Considering Slalom vs. Publicis Sapient for a role. What’s the MD equivalent at both companies? I have 22+ years spread between consulting and industry.

Hey all, been targeting big tech roles within analytics and have had solid success getting interviews although landed nothing yet (amazon google Coinbase PayPal). I have 5YOE within analytics consulting. A recruiter reached out for Senior Manager Data Science role within IT Audit. Comp would be ~200k. Went thru the interviews and expecting an offer next week. Should I just decline and hold out for big tech? Kind of torn, it’s a unique opportunity to be a SM with direct reports at 5YOE.

Senior Manager, Health Policy position at Centene Salary?

Had the partner in charge of the tax group I was previously in at a B4 firm email me encouraging me to apply for an opening with them (basically same role I was in before, but at a SM level). The catch is, I was part of their COVID RIF layoffs in summer 2020, and don’t think I’ll forget that anytime soon. Do I just respond that I’m not interested, or do I politely make it clear I have zero interest in ever returning to the firm?

Got an offer from a bulge bracket investment bank internal strategy role vs currently a Senior Manager at a Tier 2 strategy firm. Thoughts? Salary is a tad lower at the bank but looks like a competitive lot of peers at the bank

Just got approached for a senior manager position at fortune 100 company that is an IC role…? Even the director level would have limited leadership opportunity… I guess it’s better than all of the scrum master and project manager roles that seem to fall into my inbox but just odd leveling. Am I crazy or is it weird for a Senior Manager to be an IC???

Accenture 🐠 I recently joined as SM and I’m being asked to backfill a Manager role on my first project. I’m really unhappy about this because the work is way under my experience level but the client is a good one. Should I just suck it up and get staffed there or can I say no? If I did end up on this project would there be a negative impact for me in any way at year end?

Possible to exit from SC level at BIG 4 to SM level at industry?

SM from big 4 to Enterprise growth strategy lead at Wayfair. 40% jump in pay and role is interesting - drive strategic change and p&l responsibility etc. Any thoughts?

So just interviewed for a Revenue Agent position supposed to receive initial offer within the next couple of weeks based on what the manager was saying. Part of me definitely likes the idea of a 40hr work week with no other crazy obligations/metrics or needing to do extracurricular stuff to get a bump in pay. The manager guy said generally they put you at a low step so pay obviously isn’t spectacular. Now entering my 3rd year as a SM is it worth taking a pay hit or would you try industry?

Challenges moving to an IC role from an experienced SM / Manager?? Let me know what I should watch out for… TIA

Would you reach out to a coworker who is an ex-employee of a possible exit op to talk about that exit op? Feels like an easy opportunity to get information but a risky one nevertheless Coworker and I are not close, but some networks (including with my SM) do overlap
