Anyone have experience with bringing up to the Partner that your current compensation is far below your coworkers in similar roles and that you are also 15k below the market average? Anyone have tips or advice? Working up the courage to speak with my practice leader.

The partner knows all that and where exactly you fall in the band. “I want more , because coworkers supposedly make more ” will never fly.

Start with your accomplishments, what you did, how you are performing , reviews got and all that. Be transparent about why you deserve a raise based on what you did and your skills. It needs to be about you on your merits and not because of others

If you think you are below the market, then find a job in the market that pays more and ask your current firm to match

This was advise I got 10-12 years back and it was spot on. “Reward me for my contributions” is the right path. Be ready for the second path of moving on if you’re not favored. My experience is that if I am good with my accountable actions this ask for reward gets ackd.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
