Moved NY->Lon->NY for SO’s MBA and switched consulting firms in between in London. Salaries are indeed lower in London- both consulting and industry, as I found out in my London job search. Both my own and my friends’ experience of doing the move has been that you need to be ok with a pay cut. On the flip side, cost of living in London I found to be much lower than in NYC and somehow so was my tax rate. As a result, despite the lower salary, I felt like we had a slightly nicer lifestyle in London than in NYC (apartment was both better and cheaper) while the savings rate barely took a hit.

Thanks, everyone. I suppose my hesitations about the pay cut is that I fear it will not allow me to enjoy life in the UK (going out to dinners, enjoying some weekend trips, and going to events). If I move for a few years, I want to be sure I enjoy the most if it.

Revised questions: is the cost of living low enough that the £60-70k will allow me to enjoy the lifestyle that UK has to offer? Sounds like that is a yes from Principal 1!

You will be able to enjoy life on £60-70k, I found that once you reach above £40k (if you’re in a couple) or £50k (if single) you can pretty much not think about money, though depending on your spending you might not save much

Yes, UK salaries are very low. From a salary standpoint, a city like Zurich is probably a better deal

No it should be higher , making the same move at mgr at ~70k + bonus

As a consultant from London, I can tell you that salaries are lower across all firms compared to the US - from MBB to Big4. To be frank Big4 salaries are straight out laughable - my friends started with 32k GBP for example.

Manager salaries are more £70-75k. £60k is consultant

Scandanavia too

In my case I had to take a ~20-25% pay cut to move to London

As a pped?
