Currently interviewing for a manager position in PWC (min YOE reqt is 6). I just saw that they have openings for senior manager (min YOE reqt is 8). Can I discuss with recruiter and align my expectations? I have 8 YOE and I think I should be aligned to SM.

Good luck. PwC recruiters are the worst, total waste of time

Having said that I will say out of the big four, strategy&, ey Parthenon and Deloitte S&O are probably the only worthwhile places with very strong minds. The rest is mediocre insecurity or there not by choice. I’d target Oliver Wyman and AT Kearney. More rewarding then any of these others or of course MBB.

Moving on from Hotels (Hospitality)?

I’ve been thinking about this for awhile now, but it is very to commit to actually accept a new job offer since I really do love my job. My only complaint is, the pay vs workload is very small. I’m a manager now and my property offered me a director position… but the salary is still low! To make six figures, it’ll take another 5-6 years to grind it out.

Should I move on and go to a different industry? Opinions are welcome! Thanks in advance.

Please help me decide. Yoe -3.5

Hi All. I have a good job offer but I'm wondering whether I should negotiate comp. I made it clear from the beginning what my target for base comp was which is ~$10K over the top of the posted salary range for the job. I also said that I was comfortable proceeding with the interview process despite the top of that range being lower (somewhat weakening my position for later I suppose). The offer is at the very top of the range. Bonus is 5% less than what I get in my current job. Negotiate?
