Been at Deloitte a year (strategy analyst) did the math on the hours I’m working + my salary and it works out to $20 an hour. I’ve been considered a high performer. Anyone have thoughts on my options to maximize my compensation either in consulting or in industry?

That’s why you should never do the math...

So you don't realize it's not worth it 🤔

That’s 20% less than what I pay my house cleaner (and no, not a joke). You’re grossly underpaid and need to find greener pastures.

You should be easily able to jobs that pay $40-$60 an hour.

I don’t know how to count my hours so I assume I work 49 out of the 52 weeks in a year and I get $34/hr ($76,000, commercial expected to charge 9hrs/day). In the grand scheme of things I’ve definitely had a lot of days where I’m not actually working 9hrs, but also some, definitely less but still some, days were I’m working 10-12hrs. So idk. Hard to really put a yearly salary into hourly pay with an accurate picture of what it truly equates to, unless you’re taking your actual hours worked last year, but you can always take more/less vacation, and I’m sure you don’t charge your actual hours you just charge your daily 8/9 like the rest of us

Bonus?

Ask for more money, go to another firm (typically get a better salary by jumping firms), or go to industry

$20/ HR with 2000 hours in a year, would make it around $40k/ year. Is D that cheap?

I don't know any consultants that are working 2000 hours a week. If you assume an avg of 55 hours, 47 weeks of the year, that's 2585 hours.

But yeah, OPs math seems wonky.

Paid the same (or less) at mckinsey
