@VP2 considering we recruit in late January before we even know what we're doing at the desk yet, do you really think you're BS marketing decks are what landed us the job? I mean if that makes you feel better about being a "lifer" then sure

Seriously tho, ever stop to think why MBB get better candidates? It's because they recognize that the entry level consultants will leave and become clients. Think I'm going to look fondly at my banks when deal time arrives? The answer is no.

Yep

Leave bra

Yes, I would suggest leaving if it happens multiple times. A manager could have a really bad day as well.

Two years. Fortunately this person moved desks recently. It was a nightmare

How did he / she break you?

Yes and that's why I'm not at CS any longer

@VP: not gonna give away too much now... that'd spoil the anonymity.

SVP: good question. The answer is the manager didn't "break them" because all of the above posters are still working in the industry. I'll wager, those above, likely earned promotions and greater responsibilities since working with that "bad" manager.

GS1: us "older" folks created experiences that prepared you for greater heights and opportunities. You are welcome. Congrats.

Your fml 😭😩

YOE: 6

Received an offer for non- tech CCM role and wondering if I should accept. I feel like I was lowballed and downleved despite having 6 YOE (relevant but not in tech). Not sure it will be beneficial to leave my current role for this offer to get my foot in the door.

I’m at the cap for salary at the level/role and can’t negotiate offer any higher.
