I’m a strategy SM at PwC (not s&), 8 consulting experience, 1 year at SM. Does 164k sound too low? Thinking of asking for a raise at year end (maybe get retention bonus or something.)

If you’re not in s&, then I’d say that’s an appropriate salary for SM at PwC, given that specific role does not map to the same level of SM at the competing firms. I think your reasonably comp’ed.

How are you a strategy SM at PwC but not in S&? Is there another strategy arm?

No, the pay is still divided by PwC and S& and regular / advanced cohorts.

If you’re a “strategy” SM, I would try to become a strategy SM at S&. They’ll pay you what’s right. I’m at KPMG, and I just interviewed for a manager role at S&. I asked for nothing less than $200k base, and recruiter said they could do that np.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
