Currently up for promotion to manager. This year, we not only write our own business case but also have to interview with a panel of Partners/MDs in the practice. Any advice?

I can’t imagine who would be seated there / look around and see if you admire any of them. When I was at kpmg the driving reason to quit was zero admiration of the management team (the partners). All I saw was a bunch of personal and professional lowlifes in a company that fostered bad behavior. Encouraged it even. Write a business case on cheating on your wife, stealing from clients, lying to regulators, and shitting on staff and they may jump you all the way to partner.

Sounds tedious and unnecessary. Talk to me about the Siegfried Group ;)

Switch firms? Once you interview the losers who run your firm you might want to consider a new place to become manager.

I'm in the final round of interviews for two internal positions - both vertical. One has FTE's (my first such experience) and the other a much broader scope vs my current role

I had interviewed externally for a role on par w the internal roles, at a smaller and less established company. They confirmed +20% was in their range

How do I push back on my company if they offer less than that, if I do want one of those roles? Without a pay scale, what is the best way to approach?

Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?
