If you asked to be considered for early promotion and didn’t get it (despite being highly rated, exceeding billable goal, etc) would you look elsewhere? Is it right to be angry about it? I don’t want to spin myself up unnecessarily if it’s unjustified

I think it doesn’t matter that much.. if you think your current job is for your growth and $ is good, then stay. Otherwise look elsewhere… the early promo doesn’t matter that much.

Not worth looking elsewhere for reasons stated by EY1 and EY2. In the grand scheme of things, not getting promoted “early” isn’t a good reason to leave. Focus on your career growth and building relationships. That will pay dividends later and set you up for success as opposed to just searching for a title.

What level are you?

So I’d say at the end of the day, if you like your group/coworkers, that’s way more important than the promo title. I’ve only seen 1 person successfully get promoted to manager after 2 years, so it’s really uncommon in my office at least. Sure you can apply to another big4 and try to get that manager bump, but being in a new firm/new clients/new systems/etc and being in a new role could be verrrryyyy challenging.

like

What group are you in? I would look elsewhere because Deloitte has been hiring people that were only a senior for a year at other big4 as managers it’s total bs.

I agree, but from the employers standpoint it’s easier to justify early promo or higher salary for an external hire since most people don’t know too much about them as opposed to your coworker. This is why it’s better to switch firms, but majority will stay. Until majority of people switch firms like they did last year, the firms won’t do anything. Why do you think Deloitte gave higher raises and retention bonuses to existing staff finally?

Do you have the skills to be a manager or a really good senior? If employees are true to their title then there is a difference, OR some firms the title doesn’t matter and you still do the same things whether you are a senior or manager.

I think so. I think I’m doing a lot of manager things now, without the pay or title. I know I’m viral to the engagements I’m on. I think I would rise the occasion.

Senior to manager is a big jump, much more so than associate to senior. The responsibility load goes up materially, so while you may be doing some manager work right now there’s a big difference between doing some manager work and doing 100% manager work. I wouldn’t stress about it or consider leaving personally unless you felt like you weren’t being compensated fairly. Now if you don’t get advanced on the regular timeline I’d then start looking.

Hello. My mid-year review is coming up soon. My boss has been on partial sabbatical the last 3 months, so I have been covering for her. In this first half of the year, the other person on our 3 person team left, so I had to cover that. I have also had to train 2 people that ended up not working out or quitting. This will be my 6th year. I am an AVP at Credit Suisse in Raleigh and am currently making about 72K. Just trying to gauge if I should ask for a raise in this upcoming meeting.

I’ve interviewed for several Director and VP roles over the last 6 months. I keep getting to the end only to either be ghosted or told the position is “postponed due to budget”. Even my own company wants me to sit a Director role another 24 months before promotion “because of budget”.

Is budget really the reason or am I doing something wrong? How do I finally get that promo? Been regional ops (13 states) for 15mo and Director slotted for 9 now.
