At ey, its an enhanced pension which isn’t bad but no where close to partner’s one.

Serious question - how bad are the director’s retirement benefits? I plan to retire between 40-45, so probably not gonna bother pursuing the partner track...is it worth trying the director track or should I just go to industry?

Thanks PwC1, that’s good to know. Same here, not counting on the firm’s pensions, but curious. Does not sound like a ton for directors anyways.

you need to look at the retirement plan documents - in some (my) firm, even with being an MD the enhanced pension doesn't kick in until X years at MD, need to be a certain age (45 would not do it)

That’s fine, the retirement plan money is good to have but won’t count on it since ideally we’d have enough in our taxable accounts. Just wondering how good/bad the plan is, since it’s “enhanced” and I’d imagine it’s different from the regular plan to all employees.

I realized recently that I can turn my “super associate” persona at any time. I had it off during covid when my kids needed me and got a bad review. So now it’s back on. I’m responding to midnight emails (and daytime ones in under 20 minutes) and getting work done the same morning. I’m spending countless hours doing edits over edits. I actually don’t like super associate. Why do people live like this 24/7?!? 🤔

I have been at my company for 3.5 years. One year ago (2.5 years into my employment with them) they re-leveled everyone and I was bumped to an entry level position on the terms that they changed my job title when they re-leveled, so “technically” I am at the early stages of my new title. Even though the job duties did not really change.
I’m not sure the best way to approach this. Has anyone else had a similar experience or know how I should advocate for myself?
