Finding a new employer is the only way to significantly improve your compensation.

Why do you think firms pay a lot of emphasis on campus recruitment and pour Koolaid down their throats? Keeping campus hires the longest possible time with the firm is their best bet to maintain margins. Home grown employees are the lowest paid at any level.

Another perspective. I was always down homegrown. Yes Friends left ad got raises but i lapped then generally in 1 year and by 5 it was no comparison.

Maybe I was lucky, good, old. Who knows. But something to think about.

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
