For reference, I billed $400k in fees last year and have consistently ranked at the top range for utilization. Received great feedback from MD, was told employees typically receive a 3% raise for a non promotion bump, but since I was a high performer they increased by 4%. Feeling pretty demotivated as inflation was 2.5% last year... any advice?

Omg please leave.

Is SA the 2nd level at your firm?

Comp seems low for NYC. If 3% is the standard non-promo bump, then 4% sounds reasonable.

Either way, I'd look elsewhere, as that looks like comp is pretty low at your firm unless there are very substantial promo comp bumps.

My company went toxic in the last couple months. Chose me and started interviewing. Had a very successful interview with Amazon but recruiter is working hard trying to place me and said there’s no knowing how long to find a team. Meanwhile I just received a Director offer for a company with a 29% pay bump July 1. If Amazon or any other FAANG/large co gets back to me, is there an acceptable way to not burn bridges with new job and accept or delay start date with FAANG? Or fuck it just hop?

I’ve been working here for 2 years and my company is well established and the job is easy, but I honestly just want higher pay. I see companies (smaller and larger) that potentially can give me that but would it be worth it? I’m having a hard time finding out what opportunities/paths I can take and what amount of $ would be worth moving jobs for. Any insight is appreciated!

He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>
