Partners at mid-tiers make less than Big 4 associates, unfortunately

likefunnyhelpful

Aren’t the mid-tier partners where we got our on-shore shared services center staff?

As a grant Thornton partner, my understanding is a big 4 partner might make 10-20% more for same years of experience. I started my career at the big 4 though and came to gt for wlb/culture issues and as a partner that is why I am still here. I just had a big 4 firms reach out to and I could probably make 100k more than I make now but it is too risky of a move.

Why is it risky? You could easily go back. You could get fired from Big4 and GT, would still hire you. That’s my understanding at least based on what I’ve seen…

(Fired for legitimate reasons, of course.)

Comp at non-big 4 is typically front loaded as big 4’s deferred/pension is substantially higher (3-5x).

I’ve seen a ton of direct entry partners (and openings) to non-big 4 lately. Very interesting, good luck!

Hi all 🙂👋🏻 Apologies for such a late post. I have an offer of 18 CTC(1L joining bonus) from Larsen & Toubro Infotech & 12.5 fixed from IBM .
My joining in both are in around May last week. Tomorrow my IBM pre onboarding HR will connect with me. Should I ask for a counter offer tomorrow itself?
Or should I ask 2 weeks before joining?
Many told me that companies revise CTC when the joining date is near, else they show less interest. So should I go for it now itself?
Appreciate ur inputs🙂

Deloitte USI is offering me 15LPA fixed and 1lack joining bonus and HCL offering me 23LPA fixed. I've tried to negotiate with deloitte but they are not ready to negotiate and asking me to join on the same CTC which was initially provided. I'm confused to select the company. It would be really helpful if anyone could share their views. Thanks.
