As a SA3, who has been highly rated every year, does it make sense to jump to another big 4 where I could maybe be a manager this summer (leading to a pay raise/bonus, and maybe even try to get pwc to match it)? I don’t really have any issue with pwc outside the feeling of no raise stings with a top rating.

Many offices are not hiring or downsizing and unlikely to give you a promotion. You also run the risk of decreased performance because of no rapport / new guidance / different clients.

Question (not trying to be a jerk, legitimately trying to understand). Agree 100% that no raise is disappointing, but what would you want the firm to do? Partners already took a large pay cut and the firm doesn’t have large cash reserves. Should partners have taken even larger cuts to fund raises rather than lower comp for the current year?

smart

Honestly...not 100% sure what the answer is, if I did I guess I would make more money hahaha. Idt pwc is as “cash poor” as they claim. I think it was a strategy to plan for this virus to continue for over another year and that we haven’t hit the worst yet and I would have preferred people fired since I’m high rated and they will get rid of people anyway (don’t want to get into how long virus will last here, that was short idea).

Do you have a target firm or you are just thinking loudly?

I was told I couldn’t early promoter to senior and early promoted to manager. Was told 4 years simply isn’t happening (I have been tier 1 rated 4/4 years). This year, I switched clients I’m on for the first time after being here 4 years. So with that, I’m now lead senior on a very different job, since I was told mid year wasn’t happening and my old job was absurd hours
