Looking for opinion from people working in FS consulting space.
I have an offer from a energy trading firm in their traded risk tech team. Its a good offer (8 YOE), 85k+20%+good benefits.. I also received an offer from EY's traded risk quantitative advisory. They proposed a pretty low-ball offer, which I am trying to negotiate. I am sure it will still be less than the other. From career progression pov, what do u think about future prospects of role at EY, I am inclined to take EY's offer.

Yes I have 6+ YOE in consulting and implementing risk solutions + product manager of risk solutions, but while working at a solution vendor (Murex). My motivation for EY is to be more quant/business oriented and I hope to grow within EY/Big4s/Industry as an expert in the risk domain (market risk for now). I don't really have a tech training per say (Eng.+ masters in finance) so I don't fancy tech side of things a lot in long run.

Yes, because getting rid of it even more painful

Do you have previous consulting experience? What would you like to be doing in your career in 5 years time? What comp growth would you hope for? What’s steering you towards the EY offer?
All that might help people give some additional advice.

What level at EY?

You could definitely negotiate with EY. They may come up to about 80k, albeit with much lower bonus.

I don’t think people understand what the difference between conservative and liberal judicial philosophies are.

Conservative judges see their role as interpreting what is explicitly in the Constitution and that there are explicit constraints in it (cont’d)

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA?

I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.
