Hey all. I have an offer on the table from EYP. Total comp at USD 280 including bonus for their strategy group. I'm an ex mck EM who went into a city developer strategy position for the past 2 years. They told me my path to partner would be accelerated as a promise given that there is no salary bump. Any guidance of if this is worth it and if the path to partner acceleration is just window dressing

I joined at a level lower than you, coming in with a very specialized, high demand technical background. It was a carrot they dangled, but was not true. While I love the people in the group, I would recommend treating that promise with a healthy dose of skepticism.

Also, is there a reason they didn’t offer you a Sr Director position?

Certain high demand areas in LS. I have a PhD.

They always dangle those carrots....I mean they main thing is if you can sell you'd make it. I've seen MDs get there in a year or sell after bringing in the right sales.

Assuming they have you SD level?

Do you know how long the director track is, I am not really up for reliving my whole EM tenure

How did you land EY? Do you have an existing book of work?

A recruiter reached out. I don't work for a consultancy company the moment so wouldn't have a book of work if I understand you correctly

Out of curiosity, what’s a city developer strategy position? Do you mean real estate dev on the investment side?

Yeah basically but for a master developer

I did it! I got an in-house Paralegal position after years of working and being burned out at different law firms. I was going to leave the legal field all together because I was so burned out and depressed, but I decided to give the field one more chance if I was able to go in-house. Prayerfully, this transition will be a good one.

Additional Posts in Consulting Exit Opportunities

Taking my shot in tech sales. Consulting was great experience but enjoyed the relationship and BD aspect more and didn’t see myself climbing to partner. Starting in a junior BD Rep role to learn prospecting and earn quota history. Took a big paycut for the potential future earnings as an Account Exec. Did I dun goof? Probably. But I’ll regret it forever if I didn’t take my chance now when I’m still single and young-ish.
