folks with friends or spouses in audit - how does the pay gap compare to consulting? I always thought they got paid less but my s/o in audit insists they catch up once you hit manager+ and its pretty much equal…is this true?

They will continue to get paid less, but they will have steady careers relatively speaking . Same applies when you are a partner. All consultants don’t get paid the same either. The rate/margins are high for strategy but may not be the same for tech implementations. Even within tech, it could be higher for AI as opposed to ERP

Whats the plan? I asked FB people and I am right. If you are M, let me tell you, leave it. If your SO makes more money, you win anyways. If they don’t then you don’t win.

They catch up when they make partner..

No they do not! Audit partners not paid anywhere near consulting partners, and no audit partners are in leadership. It’s all consulting people!

Our Chair of Deloitte US is from A&A…

They don’t catch up before the Partner level, and even then there’s not necessarily parity.

Rule of thumb I saw at B4 is audit salaries tend to be comparable to one level down in consulting (e.g., a consulting Senior makes as much or more than an audit Manager). If the consultant is MBB/T2, audit’s not catching up to that.

Stupid me thought Accenture is different. Like any other consulting firm, some MDs literally gave away their soul to the devil once you got promoted.

Do you all feel that the Health Insurance choice is actually all the same? The coverage is absolutely copy and paste for Bronze to Platinum and the deductible/copay is very similar.
I just don’t understand why we have the illusion of “choice” if the offer is the same and it is really bad (in our case).
Going from $61 per paycheck for 2.5k deductible 75% copay to $500+ per paycheck with 500 deductible 85% copay.
Other firms have better health insurance?

There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?
