I'm seeing people becoming/promoting to Senior managers at 9 YOE and some as Directors at 10.5/11 YOE Big 4 in IT/technology conulting. Are these very rare/exceptional cases?

Promotion doesn't always have anything to do with merit; more often than not, those who are good at networking(L*cking) get promoted quicker. People prefer followers over talent. Moreover, even if someone with 9 years of experience becomes a Director, their pay will still not be much higher than that of a Manager or Senior Manager with similar experience unless they have a Tier 1 MBA.

Hi fishes,

I received an offer from big 4 with 60% hike. My managers wants to retain and I asked them to match if you want me to be retained.
Now I got a call from GPM yesterday. He used harsh words like "being greedy" "selfish" etc and offered me 30% in the end.
I politely declined but he asked me to reconsider as he said "it would be unfair for the org for you to leave so soon."

Let me know a proper response.

Also what do you think of this behavior by GPM?
