Big 4 consulting to tier 2 tech firm, 25% base salary raise with an even higher total comp potential. Currently on a long term stable contract and generally content with the work. Are you leaving for the pay raise/potential growth opportunity?

Go! Consulting will always be there. Worst case you use the raise to go back to consulting in a year and make more.

Hard to say. Are you approaching promo? Do you have any insight into the difference in wlb across the firms/practices in question. Do you know anything about the culture at the other firm? How does it relate to your current firm and offering? What’s the situation volatility wise at the other firm? What’s the bonus situation like over at the new place - there’s what they’ll offer and there’s what they actually pay out (do they go above and beyond ever or do they have a tendency to cut bonuses with little reason). Are there other factors that may make stability valuable (young family, etc). Also, how much would 25% improve your life? 25% when you’re light on savings and struggling some is different than “I want for nothing already”. I’d take stock of all of these before pulling the trigger.

Depends on the tech firm to a large extent

Personal / family decisions aside…do the simple math of how long it will take to get a 25% salary increase if you stay at Deloitte? 3 years if you are meeting expectations…maybe longer.

Deloitte isn’t handing out 25% raises even for promotion. Maybe in the rare case you are so low in your band.

I did. Be prepared for: FOMO, no network, no reputation, no tenure, but once the short acclimation period wears off, never looking back.

I don’t know what tier 2 is but a 25% base is good enough to jump. Specially from a Big 4.

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.
