Which office / region?

Most places you can. And if you can’t you’ll typically be able to get promoted to C after 6 months as an SAC

Thanks!

Can depend on the office/region/situation. I’m in a large North American office, and early SAC promotion is not allowed or possible. Everyone is promoted at 2 years (you can be asked to leave, but that’s <5% typically)

Are you coming from Kearney? If so, mind if I dm you with a few questions?
