Thank you for the candid response! Is there frequent travel to client site? Perhaps visiting the transaction target as well?

Do you mind summing up your understanding and we can fill in the gaps?

Sure - my understanding of deal advisory is that we are assessing potential acquisitions, sales, mergers for our clients. I would like to eventually exit consulting to work in PE, so Id imagine this would be great experience to have. My main question is how much of the analysis are we performing? Is there valuation performed? And if so, what is the ratio of quant to qual analysis?

What do you do in finance transformation?

Hello guys,
Today I had salary negotiation with
Capgemini , they are offering 15 lpa with 10% variable. I feel this is a bit low based on current market standards. I asked for 20 initially, but they are not willing to go beyond 15 without any counter offer. HR flat out rejected 20 saying business will not approve. what is the max they will give after providing counter offer? And if i join around November, when will i be eligible for next appraisal? They are offering c1 band.
