Being recruited by ey for a manager role. I'm a senior manager at a boutique, but I'm basically doing director level work. Very hesitant to take the step down.

So... don’t? The recruiter is probably just trying their luck. Double down on your ask and be ready to move on

Typical EY.. had a buddy unfortunately go through the same thing even though he met all the criteria for the position he applied for. They still tried to pull a quick one and bring him in at a lower level smh..

Most companies will try this. It’s a game, and if they think they can win, they will try.

Why would you even consider it? Makes no sense.

Why would you step down? BTW - Managers at EY are = SM at PwC. There are very few levels at EY.

Don’t do it. No matter what they pay.

If you’re bringing a sales pipeline, no reason to step down. If you’re a senior manager in title only and aren’t able to bring in business immediately, then coming in as a manager makes sense and it wouldn’t be a step down.

Manager salaries can vary widely. If you come in at the top of band could be worth considering. If you think you’d be happy at EY...

I wouldn’t. Your peers will be significantly younger and M level sucks!

If the pay is higher, I would recommend going for it. It will be easier to work your way up and you'll be set up to succeed. I did something similar (M boutique to SC big 4) and have been able to move up quickly

What are they offering 💵 💵

I gave up a title for an increase of $175k

Hi, where or what types of companies should sophomores & juniors apply for next summer (2022) to recruit for IB the following summer (2023)? This summer BBs wrapped up SA IB recruitment, EBs even earlier, and a fair amount of my friends missed out big time.

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?

Appreciate any advice and insight, thank you.
