Yes - you will not make 150 even if you make promotion which also far away. Let’s say you do get promoted your promotion is not going to kick in until a certain period with pay increases etc. Which means you are effectively making a lot more leading up to it: I know money isn’t everything but this makes more financial sense unless you love consulting

This, especially if it’s SVB lol

YOE?

If you can get that offer for 150k, you’re doing pretty well for that YOE

Why D1?

Cause I worked in their knockoff strat group and only made 80k/year, and had to leave to get outside experience, but I would have been happy as hell making 150 at SVB, great company, direction, and people.

Inspired by one of my kids' favorite books, I penned this masterpiece of an Ode to Consulting:

One senior partner all alone
Calls two managing directors on the phone
Three associate partners at the door
Bring along another four
Five senior managers come overdressed
Six managers show up with a guest
Seven senior consultants arrive in a sack
Eight associates sneak in the back
Nine analysts come to work
ALL THE CONSULTANTS GO BERSERK!!!

Ok, I'll show myself out now... 😂
