Need advice
Currently a y2 associate working in cloud Cybersecurity. I have an opportunity to transition out and into a private wealth firm and eventually become a financial advisor.
I would like to know what are realistic 5yr outlooks if I stay in Cyber, is manager possible?If so what would comp look like. Is 200k manager position realistic in 5yr?I feel as though transitioning to FA would be where I can reach 200k+ in 5yrs and have more freedom but just don’t know enough for outlook

Advice or venting: Signed an offer letter stating I’d get my sign on bonus day 1. Didn’t get it so payroll said wait until Wednesday. I didn’t make a big fuss but got my 1st week pay yesterday (fast I know) but my bonus wasn’t included in the pay. Payroll then says I have to wait until the 30th for the bonus & my recruiter said sorry but we use the same verbiage for all offer letters with candidates who get the sign on bonus. I’m disappointed & thought I’d have it before Christmas!

Hello fish, I am a new grad and I got two offers. One is a Junior Project Manager at Accenture in corporate functions, and the other is consultant role in a less popular boutique firm with a more competitive salary. I like Accenture, but the only concern is that I wil be doing internal work and I know that most recruiters only appreciate Accenture Strategy with client facing experience. Which one do you think will provide me better exit opp, especially I want to break into Tech after 2-3 years?

Hey, I recently got two job offers. I know my end goal is more strategy focused role , maybe some quantitative aspects probably in real estate or tech. My first offer is in Deloitte GPS Advisory as an Analyst, total comp is 95k. My other offer is for BTS (boutique consulting firm) in strategy execution with total comp being from 88-93k. If I stay with BTS, I’ll save a lot of money longer term. Which would you recommend? Is boutique strategy a bad place to start compared to big 4 advisory?

Maybe I’m missing something, but even with a median comp out of HBS (top choice, ~$200k total comp), the payback period seems long and IRR seems low.

Totally understand that each person’s situation is unique, but it seems to make sense for people 1) with lower comp, 2) MBA scholarship or 3) desperate need of career pivot.

Any insight is greatly appreciated 🫡

Need some advice please. I have been offered a good salary and role at a t2 firm. I am also quite deep into the process at another t2 firm.

Should I tell the one I have the offer about the one I’m still interviewing for and vice versa to leverage a better package / expedite the interview process? Or is this viewed negatively and could piss both off?

Would you accept a job offer which intakes a lower position (from SA to Associate) but with a well rounded increase in salary? For context: KPMG -> Deloitte / South Europe -> North Europe. Current salary 37k + Bonus -> around 55-60k + bonus (new possible salary).

Right now in a more deal driven line of service, I would move to a more operational driven line of service.
