Hi all, need some advice.Currently at a Big 4 and have an offer for AM role from another Big 4 in the same field, £6.5k salary increase.Been here just under a year.Don’t hate my team but not fully enjoying it tbh. Would likely be 2% salary increase if I stayed so not much and the new role is above the (potential) new shorter UK ILR threshold, which will shorten my ILR timeline by 1–2 years compared to staying. Big downside is £3k visa cost repayment to current firm. What would you do?

Negotiate the repayment fee with the new firm and plan to stay there (new firm) for a few years minimum even if you also dont like it to show consistency.

Yes that’s what I’m thinking I might try, thanks! Honestly main reason on for leaving current firm is that the fact that it will take longer to get residency due to salary so for sure planning to stay with the new firm long term (even if I don’t enjoy it as much)

If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?

After your first job, how relevant is GPA. For context, I went to a school that is very well known for grade deflation (Deloitte had a “suggested” minimum of 3.2 here) and I studied statistics, a particularly rough major at the school. Long story short, GPA was between a 2.9 and 3.0. This wasn’t due to slacking and I’ve done well at Deloitte so far with plenty of experience to speak to. Would my GPA still block me from certain firms, like any of the MBB firms or a Tier 2 consulting firm?
