Been at the company 2 years and considering a switch. Would I expect a demotion if I move to Deloitte or PWC or come in at same level? Up for promotion too

General observation, people generally come it at the same level, sometimes angle for a promotion. But never ever believe them if they ask you to come it at one level to “get in the door”, but you be on a fast track for promotion. I’ve only seen people get in the back of the line at their level for promotion

Also true at Deloitte. Several people apparently were told by recruiters that they’d be up for promotion consideration their first year (maybe with weasel words like “based on performance” or “if you are ready”), and that’s almost never the case. When you start at a level, it is considered like you were just promoted to that level.

So 2 years total exp? Deloitte usually brings folks in a year below what you expect but in tour case probably come in at the Consultant level

Moving isn't going to help you get promoted. Why would leadership hire someone from their competitor at a higher level. It makes no sense at all. You need earn your stripes. It'll be a lateral or downgrade.

I got promoted making the jump to D, it is def possible.

I’ve been reading more about how there’s a difference between how men socialize and how women socialize at work.

In the past, lawyer wellness and lawyer discipline/character fitness for bar applicants have existed in silos. I’d like to finally form a bridge between lawyer disciple and lawyer wellness and focus on prevention. When we think of lawyer discipline, we automatically think of outrageous behavior like stealing money. Those are extreme. The common cases are too stressed out and forgetting deadlines or death of a loved one and not having time to call clients back. Cont’d
