Hi guys, how's O9 in terms of appraisals/bonuses

Hi everyone,

I'm currently working with management on a promotional offer. I've never negotiated before, and always accepted the first offer
My question is, I have identified a certain range that I feel better aligns with with current expectations, along with the addition of more responsibilities and expectations. When communicating that, should I I provide my highest expectation and negotiate from there?

My concern is, if I provide a range, they might just go with the lowest of the range.

Anyone familiar with the compensation range at SEI for their staff consultant role?

US vs. EIMEIA cyber market - anyone who can give insights about differences in terms of types of work they’re doing, priorities of clients long term and areas of interest? Currently working in a role in which i support a lot of BD on EMEIA level, but would be interested to move to a US role. Saw some people here criticising partnership or alliance strategies in the US quite a bit whereas I have the impression that other regions might not rely on that as much. Work for a big4 in cyber in Europe.

I recently interviewed for a position that was below my salary requirements so the interviewer forwarded me a role that is inline with salary but quite a bit outside of my skill set (and interest, tbh). How do I politely reject the opportunity while keeping the door open to other roles more closely aligned with my career goals/interests?

I joined GDS in October as supervising associate. Does EY CBS have lowest salary package? Is there no salary correction? I heard they are offering much better in other service lines. Any thoughts?

whether it's a good decision to jump to another company just for a high package?

I took this decision as it takes longer to get the same package in the current company. Please suggest… more

Hi All,
I wish to join one of the top consulting firms like McKinsey, BCG, B&C etc. I am currently working as a Business Analyst with a work ex of 3 years.
I have started exploring on my own and one thing that came out different were Case Studies interviews and I have started reading and preparing for them.
I will do MBA also post working in one of these firms.
I was hoping if anyone can help me to prepare better or suggest a plan to land a job for a role that aligns with my ambitions.
Thank You

What is a normal pay cut to go in house? For reference, I am a 5th year corporate associate making approx 250k base salary. I was just offered 180k base salary. Is it unreasonable to expect to be around my current rate which is “market” for my city? I don’t care about bonus or equity but know that companies place more value on those - my lifestyle/current expenses (this is short term - working on a big Reno) a higher salary so I’m trying to decide if it’s feasible right now or if I should wait.

Been with company for 2.5 years in a SFA role, and they just let me hire an associate financial analyst reporting into me. My manager never mentioned anything in regards to a promotion, but when I asked, I was told that there will be an evaluation period before any promotion is given. Has anyone else had this before, where you are managing someone but they don’t give you a promotion? Sounds bizarre to me that they allow me to hire someone but then are hesitant to promote.
