If given the choice I would like to be in the current level for 2-3 more years even if it meant little to no raise because I’m really happy with my level and the work I do. I also honestly get terrified with the thought of being promoted because to me it means more stress. I’m curious if there were others out there like me and if they did anything to overcome these feelings. Or Is this normal ? Continued..

Eh, normal is just a setting on the dryer. There is absolutely nothing wrong with liking your current job, despite all the professional peer pressure on FB otherwise.

Nothing wrong with that at all.

However, it may not be up to you.

It depends on the firm - some are up or out and others are ok to have lifetime seniors. Communicate what you want and why. A good partner/manager will take it into consideration.

Hello guys!!
Can anyone of you please help me out? Or atleast some advice!!

I'm a bit confused between Accenture and Bain & Company.
I've offers from both of these firms with almost similar package. The role is not related to consulting but more into the technical+business side.
If I go with Bain, will it be more fruitful wrt brand value and job switch in next few years?
Also, how is the hike and compensation benefits for the employees at Bain?

Any sort of help/advice is more than welcome!
