Our manager level is our new MBA entry level. You can see comparisons on management consulted. Overall, definitely less than MBB/T2 (5-20% in TC terms). Title progression happens a little faster (although not sure this is a huge benefit without comp), and generally speaking I’ve heard our WLB is slightly better.

@LEK1 I’m an SM and my standard week is 8-6 core hours M-F, ~5-10 hours of evening work throughout the week, and very limited weekend work so 50-60 seems to be the norm. Some projects are obviously worse and until the next wave of new hires start this summer we’re a little thin, especially at lower levels.

Received an SKP Director offer in the fall for at around ~$240ish all in ($185 base plus $60ish in bonuses and LTIP I believe)

Hi All,

I have 2 years of Indian experience as a Data Analyst .I have knowledge of tools like Sql,Tableau,Excel and Python. I have recently moved to Toronto Canada. My dream job is to become a Data Scientist. I am looking for jobs right now as a Data analyst. Do you feel I should take time off from job hunt and work on gaining more skills to apply for Data scientist positions??
Should I enrol myself into a school(if so please suggest) ? OR should I just get a job as a Data Analyst??

⚠️Toxicity Alert ⚠️

My previous manager would track us by hours daily, made a fuss everytime anything stretched and guilt us for that and the unplanned leave too unless it was COVID. Hinted him a lot of time, this is problematic but apparently he considered it "standard practice for agile".

Now 8/10 teammates have switched within < 1 year of project start (6-7 months with him) which tbh had good work in our opinion and even team was fun to work with even though none of us ever met in person.

So who else here is experiencing plummeting billable hours and exponential weight gain since this whole WFH thing started? Bought snacks for 30 days, finished in 48 hours.

I have an interview with Korn Ferry for an associate principal role and am curious about others’ experiences have been with work-life balance here. Also, I have an idea of what I should be compensated in this type of role, but any insights on how they pay compared to others would be helpful. Are you traveling during the pandemic or have client interactions been virtual? Lastly, if you are a consultant here, are you on billable hours? My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
