Contemplating an offer from EY Parthenon. Columbia Business School MBA with 5 years cumulative experience (4 years pre-MBA and 1 year in executive strategy for media and entertainment post MBA; no experience in consulting though). $170K + $10K signing bonus for Consultant I level. Should I be negotiating or is this a fair offer? I thought I have enough experience to come in at Consultant 2? If so what would be a good compensation for C2?

Seems fair and C1 makes sense with no consulting experience. Also, come to mck! Fellow CBS here 🤗

Sure! DM

Curious about this transition. Heading into a F200 FLDP post-MBA and interested in making this type of transition in a year or two.

Seems like a fair offer. Would negotiate signing and not base/bonus though bc those are often locked for each tenure. I might be careful about trying to go in as a C2 bc you will likely need to do more at that level without the experience/training that C1s will have (thereby potentially jeopardizing your promotions down the line).

I’m at CBS right now - great to see an alumni on here!

Hello! I joined a company in the UK 6 months ago, and received a £20,000 gross sign on bonus - clause associated to this however was that I stay for a minimum of 12 months. Unfortunately, the role is really proving to be the wrong fit, and I am looking to leave.

Question for you all - if I resign, I assume I would be expected to pay back the sign on bonus despite me only receiving approx 12k after tax. Anyone know the process for a tax clawback for something like this? Thanks in advance!

2. The brand collector, who writes “ex-“ for every former company they worked at and school they went to. Maybe less full of it but still insufferable.
