If you are truly unhappy, let the partner know and talk it through with them to the extent they are willing. If you really want to make a case of it, you can absolutely meet with your people consultant, and yes, there have been wins in that arena when negotiating.

Not likely. When comp discussions come out it's usually too late

nope

I tried exactly what EY5 suggested. I didn’t succeed but was glad I went through it at least. You’ll never know unless you ask!

You might if u have an external offer in hand. It’s a one time play and you better be a high performer worth keeping around

Yes I am a high performer but is it worth doing this year is my big question

I think only you can answer if it’s worth it

S1 to S2 doesn’t seem like a good year to push it. New mgr likely better

You do it between senior 2 and 3. Shoot for an offer as a manager somewhere. If you get it, you are guaranteed early promo somewhere. Watched a lot of people leave to other big 4s because of this

Comps are discussed in April don’t let them fool you

When do we receive the “comp letters” that were already in the works in April. Not sure why the secrecy

So no one really know how this works?

I told you exactly what you can do based on knowledge of actual people going through the process and pwc1 confirmed. Not sure what else you want.

My dilemma… I am an injury adjuster at a carrier experiencing high inventory that’s barely manageable. A competitor offered a higher salary and manageable workload. BUT, I would like to get into underwriting. I applied for UW position w/ a different carrier and they’ve made an offer. It’s lower than my current salary and significantly lower than what I’d make by taking the first offer. Do I take the high salary and stay in claims or go for UW in hopes it will be best in long run?

I have received 3 offers from 3 companies for PM role in the last week with my preferred company offering the least.

I would like to negotiate based on competing offer numbers - what are the things that I should keep in mind when doing so? Anything that I should be of? Like should or should I not share the actual offer letter? Etc?

Not sure if this matters but I have a total of 14YOE with 5 of them in a BA, Sr. BA roles. Started off as a software engineer.

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.
