Just received an offer to come in as an exp. manager in the SDV group at Deloitte Can anyone comment on -
- likely travel requirements in a post-COVID world (I live in Chicago)
- typical bonus expectations (low, mid, high)
- prospects to get promoted to an SM within 12-18 months
- pay expectations as an SM
- utilization expectations

Travel: no one really knows, but the firm is saying ~50%
Bonus: 0%, 15%, 30%
Promotion: Very unlikely in 12 months. If you start now you will have a full year before next year-end, but it will be difficult to build enough support and advocation in that timeframe.
SM pay: Low to mid $200’s as first year
Utilization: ~75%

OP do you mind sharing ball park what the base and sign on is to come in at your level in SDV thank you

Agree with the above. Deloitte pretty tough on moving experienced hires up quickly.

Deloitte rarely promotes from M to SM in 18 months. It’s a bait and switch. They will make people stick around for 3 years. Across the board they have added an year from M to SM. So to will be 3 to 4 years. If you end up taking the offer, take the promotion timeline with a pinch of salt !

SDV often doesn't travel as much as other aspects of the firm too. Sometimes co-location not necessarily at client site.

My Deloitte recruiter said as a manager I can straddle all parts of S, D & VCS. Anyone has insight into that? Is it common or is she just selling? Does SDV in Deloitte do CDD work— I m unclear. Thank you all.

Technically there isn’t any implementation under SDR. That sits under I&D. Now if you are asking what is the split between SDR and I&D, the latter is much bigger as you would expect. Those projects are much larger and longer term. But there is no shortage of SDR work right now.

Recruiters are full of it. The firm purposely brings you in at lower level and most likely in this case as an M1. Your performance can certainly accelerate the promo timeline.
