Currently working at Accenture in San Francisco office as a senior analyst but have been living in LA the past few months due to family being here. I asked to move offices and was informed I would take a pay cut. I've been working roles 2 levels higher then my current level since after my first project, received my MBA in July and they want to give a pay cut. Whose hiring in LA?

If you’re truly working full time roles two levels higher than your current level and not being promoted or compensated, leave.

CDP difference between SF and LA is like 5k a year, not significant. Even at L9 it’s 126 vs 119

So basically your take home would go down by a hundred bucks but ur rent would go down for 1k-1500. Take the 5k pay cut haha

What’s your specialty/experience?

Are you in a particular group/practice? I haven’t heard of this happening at Accenture, but maybe the CDP is different

Are they asking you to move to SF now? If not, why not just keep it as is.

Well my current project is ending in 3-4 weeks and HR said expect to be in person for the next one. I am about to sign a 6 months lease in LA, my current project has no issue with me being in LA not sure about the next one. Just trying to be better safe then sorry and end up in a position where I'm not employed or taking a non deserved pay cut when I should currently be actually earning more.

Did they tell you how much? Back in 2020 I switched from SF to LA as a new joiner analyst and difference was $80k vs $85k I believe

Should be possible esp considering as an analyst you’re fresh out of college and won’t mind living with roommates. Not me tho I lived in my childhood home and didn’t pay rent. Saved most of my paycheck then bought co-bought an investment property the next year.

A good friend of mine graduated from Parsons this past summer, has degrees in Journalism and French, is a talented photographer and designer (which I feel I have a pretty decent eye for after working at a design-driven branding agency for half a decade). And I’m certain she’d make a fabulous junior AD or content strategist. Unfortunately she, like many in this pandemic, is still without a job. Any advice for her and/or shops/hiring managers/non-traditional job hunt tips to steer her towards?

My firm’s IT (especially system saving and file locating function) is so bad 😐😞 and they keep doing updates no one asked them for just to mess with the stuff we already got a hang of without doing anything about the issues we actually need fixed. Anyone else in a similar boat? Do you bill the client for the time it takes to fix the IT issue (or IT inefficiency generally, like time taken to find a file in a convoluted system)? Or is that supposed to be our non-billable time?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
