Got a job offer from Gartner for “Client Partner.” As much as I dislike Capgemini (currently a grade A at Cap probably get promoted in 6 months), I think I’m going to reject the offer because I’ll be only working with 1 big client at that Gartner role which may hinder me from learning; and if I move to Gartner it’d be another 2 years before a potential promotion which will look bad for my MBA app. Am I going to regret my decision? FOMO is kicking in 😞

IMO client partner is a big huge step up from Grade A/B/C so kind of surprising unless you mean you are a top end (Grade A) senior manager

@CG1 principally you’re directionally accurate but I have seen grade b/c in solutions and sales, though very uncommon

Is the money better? Cap benefits aren’t that good and depending on what practice you are in, promotions are all over the wall.

When did you start at cap? This will give me a better idea of promo time.

I am considering an offer for an AE role (UK-LDN) where the base is £42k & OTE is £70k. The Regional GM has verbally promised to move it up to £50k base if I perform well during the probationary period, but I can’t have it in writing on the contract. I’ve tried to counter offer but they said I’m currently maxing the salary band (L4). This role is exciting as I’d be the first UK employee, doing the full sales cycle & more but I had the same base and ote as an SDR. Is it too low? Do I take it?
