Yes, tell them you made a big mistake in accepting the offer and you won’t lift a pen until they increase your base to $300k.

Honestly, you're likely paid where you should be - no one is going to renegotiate. You're making more than I was as a SM before I was promoted, if that's any consolation. Welcome to the firm.

Why do you think you are underpaid? Usually only effective way to get an off-cycle increase is to have another offer in hand - but after only 3 weeks, that’s likely not the smartest move.

What SM level are you? That’s a perfectly aceptable salary for the vast majority of BUs unless you’re maybe in NYC.

I thought $230k is sort of upper limit for SM in whichever angle you see

What differentiated value are you adding or what new revenue did you drive to the firm to build a business case for a higher salary?

Should i request for salary revision during the annual cycle?

Don’t listen to your colleague ! That is really good at EY as a SM. A lot of MDs make barely more than that!

Where do you think your base should be at Op?

Work damm hard - try to get good high value clients that can show your revenue billables and try to negotiate in the next cycle. However be ready to be disappointed as the increase would be minimum. But can make atleast 5-8% in bonus that should bring your TC : 250K

Home grown new SM here at 240.
230 doesn’t sound that bad.

No, outside hires might just go into the top band if they have specialized skills.

These guys don’t even know your background or practice and claim that 230k for SM is fair enough lol

EY7, what region and service line are you in because I would like to switch. I’ve been a SM 5 years and I’m not even at 200k yet.

Any consulting -> Tech sales people out there? Curious how consulting experience is perceived both from a compensation and placement standpoint in the tech world…? What should my expectation be? For context — I SDR’d as a senior in college and was promoted to AE right as I took a BA offer from McKinsey. Wanted to get broad exposure & become a more analytical problem solver… dont regret my decision at all but really loved sales and would like to get back around my 2-3 yr mark.

Hello people, how common is a Amazon to PWC move ?
I’m interviewing for a Senior Associate role and TC seems to be more competitive than role in L5.

TC $114k- Base AMZ- $73k +$38kstocks ( vesting 17k$ due next year)

TC $135k Base PWC -$81$ + Bonuses ( 50k$)

Looking for managerial skills which the PWC role avails, and L6 promo doesn’t seem to be happening soon in current role. I’m also mentally stretched. I hear WLB in PWC is just as busy but can anyone confirm if this move makes any sense. Google Amazon
