Is SM rank fairly similar across all the big4s, in terms of factors like work responsibilties, salary, market value, etc?

In the ones that have Director as the last step before Partner, I believe so. SM at Deloitte is equivalent to Director at the others.

There are outliers, of course, but in general that's the case.

SM doesn’t even mean the same thing in each country of the same Big 4 in all cases. Some have roles like Associate Director, Senior Director, Associate Partner etc. above it, while others don’t, so blanket comparisons are difficult, you really have to ask what it means at one firm in a certain country vs. another firm in a country.

Makes sense.. i was looking for SM role in EY vs PWC, in the US market, in technology / financial risk domain. Are they at the same level?

Is this reasonable? I'm dead-set on leaving my current job, and this would be a $20k pay increase - which makes me believe I'm leaning towards taking it for those reasons only.

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
