So Altman clearly beats out MBB in some sectors and is trying to position themselves as an MBB or perhaps tier 2 equivalent, but they’re just not matching the salaries. Why were Analyst salaries only raised to $95K when my friends at big firms (not just tier 2 but also MBB) will be making $100-120k as second years?

How can those who have been trying to get a foot in tech for months, stand against those who are being laid off that recruiters are scrambling to help?? I understand these people have prestigious companies on their resumes, severance packages, and a wide network of connects. It is very sad to hear, but realistically, they won’t have trouble finding a job. But what are the rest of us supposed to do who have been trying for months to be given a chance but are now getting pushed even further back😕

Pls help! I’m updating my resume with the hopes of leaving the firm in the spring. How do I go about including the industries that I’ve worked in and that I’ve been on IPOs? Currently a staff 2 (started in the summer of 2019) and I’ve been on a total of 4 busy seasons and then the 2 IPOs. I also have about 5 years of work experience (incl accounting) prior to joining EY, so not overly concerned about leaving before promo if the timing works out that way
