Hello. Just curious on what's the salary ceiling for a manager position at Deloitte? Received a verbal offer and waiting on written offer. I was told by a recruiter that M at Deloitte doesn't make more than 180. Just curious if that's actually true and if anyone had experience negotiating higher salary than 180.

I’ve been offered an SC role with a big4. It would be a lateral move but I would be aligned to an industry which I have long been trying to break into - an industry in which my current employer has very little presence. The new role offers 7.5% less pay, non-negotiable. Struggling to decide whether I should move. Pros: stronger reputation firm, more interesting sector (to me), hopefully more job satisfaction, better long-term prospects; Cons: reduction in pay. I’d appreciate any thoughts.
