Leaving EY Accounting Advisory - two backup offers are GT FDD and PwC FDD. Which one would you take given the aforementioned parameters?

On one hand - No CPA needed to make M at GT. PwC says it can be CPA, CFA or MBA (wonder if true)

GT is 2 years S - M, PwC is 3 years.

Comp: PwC is reg bonus, but GT pays top managers extra equity bonus. Local GT office states that they’re trying to double headcount by 2030, while PwC says they’re only hiring one senior.

Exit Ops: I want PMI, Carves etc

I think you can answer your own question by asking yourself if you’ll commit to getting your CPA or not. If that’s not the deciding criteria then PwC easily — PwC’s name will go much further than GT on any resume.

Noted - really trying not to lol.

Hear back for my main offer in M&A Advisory today (mostly PMI work) so will probably just go GT otherwise.

Thanks!

PwC is top tier

Hi folks,

If a person resigns on April month when yearly reviews are going to happen and bonus are being sent out.
So, can he get the performance bonus because he served the last whole year with dedication?

It would be helpful if managers can answer this because they are the people who approves or decline this request.

Making a lot of money relative to the average but feeling poor? Median after-tax income was ~$55,000 in 1981 and was ~$73,000 in 2020. Using a Bank of Canada inflation calculator $55,000 in 1981 is equivalent to ~$165,000 today, which would put someone in the top 10% of earners today. But in 1981 the median family had that extra money. Who can I blame?

In talks with A&M to come over to their TAG practice from EY FDD as senior associate. Base salary is very competitive on top of the alluring "bonus" structure. 2 questions:

1. Do they normally offer sign on bonuses?
2. Is their any disadvantage between A&M FDD compared to B4 FDD in terms of exit ops down the road? Trying to look 5 years down the line

Would appreciate any insight!
