If you're going to move, do it early as an associate of senior. Once you make manager then networks are important. Your network as an associate is most likely you knowing several partners, but you're just another cog to them. Take the money and run. These firms don't look out for you (you got shafted on raise and VC) so you need to look out for yourself. They take our youth, give us stress, don't pay us what we are worth, think we are happy with 1% raises when they increase bill rates 4%, don't support us. Fuck em.

@op so youre assuming your raise based on Glassdoor? You realize people with more and less experience hence diff salaries are all included in that Sr average right ...

Go!

I think I'll apply at Accenture too. Thanks for the overwhelming support, guys!

Really? That'd be awesome! 💁🏻

Wtf

@op how many years has she been with the firm?

I got a 1.6% raise , 0 VC, and a 106.7% adjusted utilization. Definitely not a happy camper. Granted I've been with the firm for a year and 4 months.

Any explanations from the partners during the call? @k8 what practice

One year and 4 months Is plenty over a year! I think it's a message @k8 showing you the door...I don't know why though

@K4 She started the same time I did, 9/2015

I was told I had all good engagement reviews and my reviews within the system reflected such. I was told that the firm had a down year this year.... oh and IT Audit.

@k8 what are your numbers though? You might be high end of band

@K4 I'm at 62k now.

@k8; what practice?

Seems, cyber, p&c, and audit got hit hard. And some Tech consultants. What locations are you guys at? That may play a big role.

I thought cyber was growing? Maybe next year it'll be different

I'm in the Atlanta office. I'm going into my second year

What was your starting salary? You must have been higher than others then. I think 62 is average for second year ATL

Started at 61k

Were you a science / math based background?

Hi All,
In the HR discussion, we both agreed on 30L CTC (10% Variable) and 1L joining bonus. But later after 2-3 days when they need to release the offer, HR is saying they got the approval for 28L CTC(10% variable) and 2L joining bonus.

Should I take that offer and look for other options or straight forward reject the offer and then look for other options?

Also, according to this behaviour of the HR, is it good behaviour?
