Currently at Capgemini and interviewing for a role at KPMG. While I love the people I’ve met at Cap, I hate the low pay and non transparency from HR. Can anyone shed light on the internal culture at KPMG?

General comment — I’ve worked at several F50 companies, and at least 2 of the 4 professional services companies (usual suspects). You have the responsibility to manage your career. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Plan accordingly. If it is pay jumps you want — prove you are worth it. Present your case to your incumbent employer. They can agree yet not have an opportunity for you at this moment. Your choice is do you take your value and go where the market demand is high? Or do you invest in your work network to build your brand where you are? Both routes may (or may not) get you to where you want to go. I realize that TC may be an immediate pain point, but look to the long game and plan accordingly.

My salary range expectations have been shared and are way above my current pay and they seem to be good with that so far lol

Most people love the culture (varies by practice) including me. However people are unhappy we are the lowest paid of the big 4.

I came into Capgemini not really knowing my worth as I was joining a large consulting firm for the first time. Once I got there I realized I was getting underpaid in relation to my level and years of experience. Going into my future role, I have this new info in mind and asking for a salary that I think is competitive and fair so that I don’t have to deal with feeling like that again. Hopefully this is the right approach because once you start off at a certain number, it’s hard to see a real big jump in terms of salary increase (at least at Cap) even when promoted.

what role at KPMG are you looking at?

What's your current role? Have you applied to Deloitte and ACN?

Senior Con. I’ve applied at both. Referred to Accenture but they don’t have a role at the moment. Deloitte I applied to over a month ago and haven’t heard yay or nay since.

Have you applied to Deloitte Public Sector or Accenture Federal? Capgemini Government Solutions? Federal is on fire right now

OP, I lead a group at Cap. Maybe we should connect and talk about what can be done here. There are often a number of options.

Please feel free to DM me here.

How’s salary like at Cap in the states? (In Germany and Cap salary is def up there relative to the top IT consultancies) - exact numbers/ranges appreciated

A client developer group just told me they reached terms to “buy equity in a lease.” From what they’ve told me, if we were setting this up fresh, I’d do a new LLC and easily handle capital contributions, buy-sell, etc. in the new LLC agreement. However, here the partner had a long-term lease on the underlying RE that our group wants to develop as a concept. Lease assignment to new LLC is dicey, but I’m thinking maybe we set up a Mgmt services company to contract w/ the partner-tenant entity?

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
