Kpmg started fresh undergrads in MC at some locations with this pay scale a couple of years ago! Most of the folks who started at that time got pretty good raises (although still on the lower end) !
Anyhow K pays least among the big4 so this shouldn't be a surprise.

I know. The chick they have in hr is a master tho. She didn't crack at all. I even had another offer to compare it too.

55k is peanuts. Look for opportunities at other companies. You can probably double your salary.

MC. Manager 1 - what questions should I ask then?

Lol no ^

Had an entry level MC offer at KPMG a couple of years ago and salary was $55k (no signing or year-end bonus for the first year apparently)...

This is my first job as consultant and most likely I am going to be promoted next year so how can I bring up the pay conversation with promotion

OP, have a salary conversation after your promotion depending on your new salary range. But don't get your hopes up and just remember nobody forced you to accept 55k nor is anyone forcing you to continue. If company is not treating you well then you can always go elsewhere. With that said, it's very impressive that you are getting SC in one year - that's your biggest rationale for a big pay bump.

Yea my PML told me that she will put in case next year but I want to make sure that I won't be getting underpaid for my whole career in this company.

Undergrads are starting at 65k

Jesus. I started 10 years ago at IBM and made $62... OP, time to find a new job. Sorry man.

OP maybe try jumping! Might get a nice pay bump!

Wow!! Op, you're not in consulting then. How did they sneak an Audit or Tax guy/gal here

Op said MC...

Ok didn't see that. Hmm... OP, what office?

Started IBM 2 years ago at 70K now at 100k... you're underpaid imo
