Advice for an internal transfer from PwC MC to Strategy& (A1)? How do I navigate politics of moving?

To be clear-I've already established a relationship with a s& partner who is willing to let me "try out" the practice+vice versa

Pros of transfer: better exit opportunities, higher comp, opportunity for much more exciting work
Cons: might lose the strong relationships I already have, worried about upsetting my practice, worried about work/life balance

pls like this post lol i can't dm yet

All the pros and cons are true. Question is, are you willing to sacrifice the WLB for better pay / exit oops?

@deloitte 1. We aren’t allowing that right now since S& is sold out

Did something similar. I think if you are open and honest with current practice the “try out” version works for all and gives you a little bit of a safety net.

Did you end up trying out? Can I DM you and ask a few questions?

8 YOE at my company & plan to ask for a raise for the first time ever. Gone from entry level S&M to essentially the Manager of S&M. I’m at $74K salary and plan to ask for $95K (I’ve exceeded target initially set for 3 people, solo). Can anyone share email text they used to ask for a raise? My first time asking… ever!

My interview got over on June 29th right after the interview the recruiter called me and told I’m selected and they will be sending the offer letter. He mentioned there will be a delay in releasing the offer letter since merging is happening right now. few days back I sent a mail to HR.. but no reply. and after that I received a mail stating they are no longer considering me for this position. Does this happen to anyone else ?

What do you do when you feel the goalpost has been/is being moved re: billable requirements? Like there's a spoken vs unspoken? I chose this job based on billables vs salary and what I'm being told I'm expected to do now is 20-30% (at least) > than what was initially agreed upon. Given my other life responsibilities, this is creating a huge strain & I feel like this is slowly getting harder & harder on my spouse & kids. I'm grateful to have lots of good work but not sure how to course correct.
