Can someone explain to me why title changes and salary bumps come so SO many months after we are officially promoted / year end is over?!

Isn't this obvious? By creating this 6 month lag between when you earned the raise and when you get it, Deloitte is able to underpay people by (avg. % raise)/2 overall. A 5% or so reduction in your biggest cost is a no-brainer

It aligns with change in bill rate - there are SOW's in flight and there are lots of economic implications there

^ exactly right. They can't change your title until you're making that titles salary, which goes into effect the first pay day in September, so the two weeks prior to that is the pay period where your new title is effective. Look for it to change on August 22.

^^ but D5, why is there such a huge delay before making that titles salary? It still sounds arbitrary

They're also delaying people jumping ship

They have to complete FY close, which is on a diff schedule from the performance year. Once the books are closed, THEN they know the pool of money and can figure allocations. Takes time.

Btw, when in August is this happening?

It's actually happening first paycheck of September

Promo doesn't become official until end of August I believe

Oh title change I mean ^

It happens officially the pay period that ends first week of September, so last week of August

They're still deciding your new salary bro. It's a process

It's the same reason my credit union told me I could make my first loan payment anytime I wanted as long as it was at least 30 days out. They know they're collecting interest on the full loan amt. during that period. Don't be surprised when companies make decisions in their own best interests

Agree with points above...keep in mind you're probably the most profitable the lower your level is

Exactly
