Don’t do it. Multiplier effect is important. In one job its coming to you naturally and ride on top of it , Rather than finding a new wave which is bigger than current increase. Don’t do bs on how industry job is cool. There are many cool jobs which doesn’t pay ( start ups as an example).

With 3-5 report ups. Wait for better pay for the exit or is this normal?

For 15K I think no travel is worth it + you can get pormoted at new job

I’d def take it if that new salary allowed me to still live the lifestyle I want. My whole issue right now is finding a job that seems enjoyable with growth and learning opportunities but in my high COL area doesn’t match what I’ll make compared to my upcoming promotion salary. So if you can and don’t mind jumping now, I’d do it.

What you pocket after you lose your expense account will be much more. Decide how important that is to you.

Go for the new job! You definitely have to take into account that our higher consulting salaries help to make up for the toll we take as constant travelers

Hi peeps, does anyone have an idea if bonus will be impacted if I put in my notice starting feb? Do they not give you bonus if you're on notice period?

I transferred into advisory from another function at the firm. I had about a year of experience in the other group, some of which is transferable so I'm considered "experienced" hire. My salary was kept the same and I was just happy not to take a pay cut. Now I'm wondering what other associates in this group start at/make after a year for comparison. Any ideas? I'm based in NYC.

I’m in a rather peculiar situation. I have been in the HR field going on 4 years, I have over 11 years of management experience, I got my PHR last year and I recently graduated with my MBA with a concentration in HR this month. I am ready for a more challenging role. However, there doesn’t seem to be much available at my current company. However, I am going on 5 months pregnant with the expectation of being out in October. I feel like once I mentioned my pregnancy I was in a holding pattern.

Im in a junior position, have excellent feedback, work hard. I make very little $. I had 2 job offers and told my current company I couldn’t afford to stay there. They immediately matched. 4 months later I followed up and the timing of the adjustment will now align with the timing cost of living increases for inflation which apparently I’m ineligible for. Should this exempt me from a cost of living increase due the adjusted salary 5 months after we agreed to this?

Hi MBB Software Engineer fishes,

I recently applied for a position in one of McKinsey’s recently acquired firm for Senior Software Engineer (Team Lead).

The interview process is so damn easy - A medium level Hackerrank test, interview with company CTO and then behavioural round with a McKinsey Director and offer extended.

Wondering if this is a red flag.

I know my productivity is effected by parental responsibility but I don’t feel that alone justifies the difference. I know our billable output isn’t drastically different. Not sure what my next steps should be and welcome any advice.

I need some advice please. I made it to the final round of interviews for a Product Owner position. Since I’ve been dealing with rejection for almost two years of getting into Product does anyone have any tips to ace the interview? Also my goal is PM. Do you think a move from PO to PM is obtainable? I’ve done some research and according to Marty Cagan the PO & PM should be one individual. To this end is the PO position seen as redundant? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
