Is there any salary bump or bonus once you finish your first year?Just finished my YE review and the feedback was 'work more hours', I assume this means no more money for me.

Work more hours? How lazy are you being?

like

If you're an analyst, you don't turn down projects unless you're way ahead on util and you're in high demand.

OP, don't just do that project if it's only 60% utilization. If a 100% comes along take it, or find ways to fill the other 40%. The opportunity is there if you network

At Accenture Strat the bump is 75k to 85k

Rating?

You'll get a bump. What was your rating

"Work more hours" seems pretty serious, OP. Like a nice way of saying "stop being a lazy shit that produces little to no value add on your teams" and isn't more specific because you don't DO enough for them to give you more directed feedback. Salary bump sounds like the least of your worries...

No I'm federal. They kept trying to put me on shit projects, 60 percent utilization. Rode the beach for a few months and my first project had me ghosting hours. They don't have rating anymore, I was in the upper-right third of the scatter plot.

I guess I should say the only advice on how to improve was to work more hours, there was feedback that I was doing a good job and keep doing what I am doing, just work more hours.

Thanks guys, all things I learned the hard way my first year. 100% percent staffed now for as long as I want to stay on this shitty project, which will be when I hit 85-90% utilization for the year or find another job outside of consulting. I really hope it's the latter.

Hi! I have a quick question and could use some advice:

I have 1 job offer that is an hour away and pays 45k, after negotiations (Research Associate Position at a University) .

I have just interviewed for a position closer to home and a base salary of 65k, but haven’t heard back from them in about 2 days (He said he would make a decision by yesterday and I’ve reached out).
I have to decide on the first offer by Thursday but I haven’t heard back from the second yet. Thoughts on next move?

Hi guys,

I need genuine suggestions. I was holding offer from IBM and Wipro & now have got a good offer from a mid size organization.
I want to negotiate with IBM and Wipro & join any of these two.

Do these companies negotiate? When & how should I start negotiation with them ?

I would like to talk professionally so that they provide me a matching CTC or in case, they can't at least they don't block me for future openings.

Please suggest, if anyone can share their experiences.
