P.S.- my title on fishbowl is inaccurate so ignore it.

That's a pretty experienced SM level at EY. I think it'd be hard to transfer in that high on base alone. Bonuses for SM have been huge though so variable pay might make up for it

Am a M3 so I can talk more about it deeply. My title also isn't reflective of my role.

It's BAU. Most people will go to newco, some specialised people like valuations tax, FAAA, Tech risk will split and go to either of the two ones.

Yeah his salary sounds out of control and overpaid

Senior manager I know was making 200k plus bonus. Your compensation seems within the band. I have slightly more than 6 YOE and make 160k plus 25k bonus.
