You can always boomerang back to D. Take the money, and save/invest while you’re young.

Don’t hesitate at all and leave lol. You can always come back to consulting. I’ve also found that boomerangs bring a lot of value to the table, having been on the “other side.” Few years in consulting + industry makes you a better M/SM/MD/Partner imo.

Do you find your work at D more interesting and more aligned with your goals? That could be one if the answer to that question is a yes.

Why not?

What position did you apply for OP?

Hello, I have received offer letter from EY LLP for Manager position.
There is a bonus component over and above the CTC mentioned in offer letter.

When asked, HR conveyed the below, verbally.
'Bonus is between 10-20% depending on performance. Usually 15% on an average.'

1) This bonus range (10-20%) is not mentioned in the offer letter. Is this usually the case?

2) Are people in EY receiving the bonus right from the first year on the job or is there some extra t&c I was not made aware?
