Views on carbon black as a product?

We had evaluations and normally we have annual raises. I think my salary is under market value at $68k (plus OT) in Los Angeles (5 years of experience). I was told I am one of the top employees in the firm. When I asked about a raise, I was told “when you think about it at your level 5k to 10k doesn’t really matter it’s the long term goal that matters”. What would be your response to that, to a partner who is making 500-600k a year?

Any raise freezes at other B4? Deloitte has remained silent thus far.

Have been at my agency for about 2.5 years and have only been able to get one raise because of Covid and raise freezes… what percentage increase is a good benchmark to ask for, knowing they likely won’t meet my initial ask (because, advertising 😏)

How’s EYP wlb for 3 yoe? Is it as bad as MBB

Do any of the top consulting firms hire into the Engagement Manager level after an M7 (if they had manager experience elsewhere)? I know MBB probably doesn’t but what about other tier 2 firms after that - and asking for US or Canada

Serious question: Sheraton cancelled my reservation and I was stranded for a night last night. Called CS and my useless ambassador and they cant help and “sorry”. How do I escalate this?

Anyone from the Milan office of McKinsey that can share their experience in this particular region? Also interested in how does it compare to BCG in terms of environment, pressure and benefits.

Assuming I have time to find properties do I still need a realtor? What were main advantages for you of having one? Or how to best maximize the benefit of having one?

A recruiter at another B4 gave me a number much lower than what I’m currently making. Should I tell them how much im making now, which is admittantly at the very top of the SC band, or counter with a range that’s more than I’m making? I hesitate to just throw out current salary + 20% bc I’d be asking for almost $190k for a SC role and I know that would be quite a huge ask for a SC @ B4, even for tech

If I end up quitting after maternity leave, do I have to pay back any of my leave benefits? I guess I could ask HR, but wouldn't want to throw out any warnings.

Hey fellow fish,
Deloitte Tax Management Consulting (TMC).
Thoughts please? Is it mgt consulting? Exit opps?

BCG or MBB folks, got a call from the recruiter today that the outcome of decision round and calibration call today was positive and the lead partner will give me a call on Monday to discuss with me on the role and offer directly by himself. Trying to get some inside from the HR but she just asked me to wait and hear from the partner, sounds a bit weird and surprise to me as normally this state was usually with the HR. Anyone experienced this before? Was this really a good sign? @BCG Digital
