I'm shocked you'd want to leave us for mercer lol.

Personally, I'd wait until the markets better and you have an exit op that is worth it. I have not heard great things about Mercer.

I'm not particularly sure about mercer. But why are you leaving EY? I'm just curious.

I remember when I first started working on my thesis project. My adviser asked me to get some funding for it, but he didn't give me any advice about how to do that. He just told me that if I wanted money for my project, I'd have to go through some kind of committee process and submit an application for funding from them. Sure enough, after weeks of writing applications and waiting around for responses from the committee members (who were always too busy), I eventually got approved for funding!

EY PAS said that they can’t offer more than 115k for senior associate in Chicago. I find that ridiculously low since accenture t&o is offering people 140k to join as a consultant.
