I am with the Cyber advisory practice making about 170k base as M. I got an offer from boutique firm with 195K base and 15 % bonus and title of principal consultant . Less than 20 percent travel post covid . Has anyone made the move from Big4 to boutique firm and what was their experience? I am concerned about exit from the boutique firm few years later if I join .

Principal consultant? Is it Capco? If so, don’t do it

Is the company called Infinitive by any chance?

Had an initial conversation a few months ago. I didn’t sense anything wrong, I had never heard of them before they called me though. Company isn’t big on titles. They seemed to be fine with my comp requirement.

On the contrary, I left a boutique for a B4 due to growth opps. At some point when at a boutique, at least in my experience, you hit a plateau of growth and experience. The larger firms that have a national presence was my attraction — and I made much more $$$.

If it’s Proxima, run

Sounds like I might want to stop the interview process then, appreciate the advice.

Fellow enterprise tech sales fish, I’m interested to hear your perspective. I’ve been in a rut lately and seriously considering leaving sales. I think it’s primarily fueled by one thing:
After a 6 mo cycle I closed a large deal (4x the average deal size) prior to receiving delayed 2022 comp plans. The deal counts as a 2022 deal. On last years comp plan it would’ve paid out at 10%. This year it pays out at a measly 4%.

How do you/have you navigated your way through and out of these situations?
