Hi,
I am thinking of moving to IBM GBS for a Level 9 role. I am looking for the following before I make a move.
What is the salary range can I expect for a Tier 1 city, and how is the travel perks compared to PwC or other Big-4?

Was at IBM GBS from 2016-2018

Level (band) 9 is senior managing consultant if I remember correctly

TC will be between $160-$180k from what I heard back then.

Travel booking is with corporate card but depending on the project you can book directly on hotel websites which means you can choose "pay $20 more dollars to get 2x Hilton points". I was at one point getting 35k points per week!

Food is per diem based on national prices. NYC was $70 a day so I would just go grocery shopping Monday's and pocket the leftover. Was an easy tax free $10k a year

Pay would be higher than what was stated above if you have an MBA just FYI. Also I’ve heard of B8 getting near 160 in nyc no mba so I’d imagine b9 range has increased a little more since then for non MBAs

So, I’m interviewing for a position that fits perfectly, HR likes my profile, had great conversations with them. Today I had a Panel interview with HR and the hiring manager. The manager is not experienced, it’s her first r manager role and she’s been in it for 3 months. I was prepared but was out of breath the entire interview, had a knot in my throat, had trouble finding my words. It’s like I had PTSD when this manager came into the picture. Ever had that?

Im interviewing for an internal promotion at my current employer. I’ve previously expressed a lot of interest in this specific role and it’s well known throughout my division my interest. Even though I’ve conducted informational interviews before now to get a feel of the role, now that I’m going through the full interview process, it doesn’t seem like what I want to do any more. I’m considering withdrawing my application, but I’m afraid of the optics and future career at this company. Thoughts?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
