Currently an IT risk senior in GPS making 95k. Recently been feeling a little behind in my salary progression as I see people post their salaries on here. Sometimes I see seniors making 120-150k. Am I doing something wrong?

There's a broad mix of consulting groups here, most of which are generally in higher salary brackets compared to IT Risk. Many in this bowl also have the 'MBA premium', which pushes them further up.

You're not doing much wrong - as a former auditor, I can tell you that you're in the right range. If your focus is more money, you should be focusing on either MBA applications or figuring out a move to the relevant practices.

Hi all, I just got a job offer at PwC for a senior consultant position.

Does anyone have any experience moving from industry to consulting? I need some advice on what to do. I’m still early in my career (1.4yoe) so I feel like I shouldn’t care too much about wlb, but at the same time, I don’t want my mental health to suffer either.

Prioritize your career goals, whether they be financial otherwise. Praise and appreciation are nice, but don’t let ANYONE make you feel bad about choices you make for your happiness.
