I’m a CAT adjuster traveling almost full time for work, I have 5 years of industry experience with 3 years in claims. I realize this role can’t be something I do forever, and need an exit plan, but everything I look at is almost half of the pay when I look at total compensation. I was looking into underwriting, hopefully on the commercial or specialty end. What can I do to minimize differences in pay and maximize offers when I make the change? I was thinking of getting my CPCU.

Friend of mine was supposed to receive an offer (told verbally) from Deloitte and then just found out they are pausing on hiring the role. How common is that? Seems wildly unprofessional that none of the partners called and instead it was the recruiter conveying that news. At McKinsey, if that happened, the head of the practice or the office would personally make the phone call at the very least.

Hey Fishes,
Been working at D India as a Manager (Not USI) for past few months.
Ask me anything as there are very few reviews available online.
To clear few misconceptions
1. Global projects are available here
2. They've started mentioning Bonus, Gratuity amount etc in offer letter
3. Work life balance depends on Project and managers you work with
4. Inside opportunities if you're the creamy layer
