LOL. are you the top of your cohort?

Yeah im at the top of the cohort. The whole cohort thing sucks, they had a perfect way to screw everyone with this model.

no they didnt screw everyone. they helped new hires

Also promoted with no raise!

lol.... this firm is a complete joke. the cohort model is terrible. the only way it works is if they give us all 10% more and leave associates 1 at the same rate now.

So when they promote you with no raise, how does that conversation go? "Hey here's a promotion and we expect more of you but you'll be staying at the same rate"....dafuq?

they throw a one time 2% "bonus" on top of your bonus.

@Deloitte1, yeah pretty much it was like hey you are great, phenomenal year for you. Promotion and ranked tier 1 and not many people were given that, but here's the band for compensation now, you are at the bottom of it, so since you are already in the band you will not be seeing any increase in compensation. And here is what we expect of you this year....

I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.
