Is asking for a 15% salary raise laughable as an associate with 1.5 YOE? TC: 75 HCOL

They don’t care that you analyzed 30 companies and feel that your not at market. They care about what have you done for them. How is it going to impact them if you leave. Other than you are important on two projects as someone with 1.5 YOE (which is easy to replace), you don’t have much bargaining power

OP, just because there’s a possible turnover cost doesn’t mean it would equate to a month worth of time and/or labor costs… if anything, your own estimate shows you’re asking about double in increase.

The reality is, for someone with 1.5 YOE, your project replacement probably already exists at your company and doesn’t need to be recruited in the first place.

If you think you can convince your leadership that’s what you’re worth, go for it. But if even you’re laughing at the thought of you making 15% more….

I don’t think it’ll go that far. You’ll never know, unless you ask. And if that’s actually their reaction, then that job is a dead end anyways, and you’d be better off elsewhere.

Why do o you think you deserve a 15% raise? And I assume this outside of the annual increase

Pwc they have pretty rigid promo timelines, I believe my promo is coming up either this June or December. Either way, don’t want to wait when I can get a salary raise now

With 7% inflation, it’s only an 8% raise in real terms.

Yes

Can someone point me to some material where I can read about profit sharing vs 401k. I get the concept, but I am trying to understand is 10% profit sharing vested over 5 years better than an employee 401k match of 6%?

From my understanding 10% PS is better because it’s just a standard 10% on top of whatever I contribute though it takes 5 years to vest. Does this mean if I leave before 5 years I don’t get any of it?

Hi Everyone. I completed my 1 year in EY in October 2022. And in my profile, they have updated it to Senior Analyst now. But that was a progression that happens every year and I have not received the incremented salary.

Now that they are giving increments to everyone, will I receive both progression and increment or my progression will be counted as increment.

Highly confused.

A friend of mine from a top tier consulting firm was counseled out. Do you consider it ethical that his career counselor is intentially spreading the information to his colleagues and to other consultants from other companies in the project? What can he do about it? Specially that he considers the potential layoff is purely based on the current situation (chargeability was low) and not on his performance (they said that his contribution to BD during his bench time was low)?
