It’s good for 3 YOE single person with no mortgage.
Rent is the main expense and you can always flat share to reduce that bit.

One thing I’d make sure to ask the employer is to separate base and super. There are more superannuation rises (% of base) scheduled for next 1-2 years. So you want to make sure that any such super raises don’t eat into your base which is a risk if they are combined

Thanks this is really helpful!

Single? Okish. With family? No. But again I know some ppl who live happily in less.

Yes

How much without superannuation?

110

Working as CAL Manager with Accenture S&C India. Offered ~GBP 76.5K (fixed plus flexi) at Manager Grade by Deloitte London.

Prior to Accenture, I have already served as S&O Manager with Deloitte India for ~1.5 yrs - so this would be my second stint with Deloitte as Manager "again".

2 questions:
1. Should I ask for Senior Mgr (AD) grade - to which they have already said NO
2. Is GBP 76.5K sitting at the lower end of M grade in Deloitte UK? What should be a good expectation for the role

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
