Sooner rather than later, especially if you have a strong network to reach back to. I simply reached out to a partner I had a good relationship with, we chatted, they hooked me up with HR, and essentially asked what I needed to come back.
Left Deloitte for 9 months for a 30% raise, came back for a 35% raise from where I was 6 months ago.

I think he meant 35 from D

Just put my 2 weeks in industry (after 6 months) and heading back to Deloitte. Left for 30% jump and returning with additional 20%. Definitely doable!

20% from your industry pay? Or 20% from your previous Deloitte pay?

And new firm's "small team" approach really just means I do everything in isolation and dont have any coworkers to bond/collaborate with. Preferred D's culture, but dont want to lose comp.

Am I missing something here? How is everyone able to boomerang so quick but get those kind of raises? Wouldn’t they hold the upper hand because they don’t have to let you back and why would you all of a sudden be worth that much more to them in such a short time period and especially if you’re the one crawling back?

Not in this economy. These consulting firms want/need us more than we need them.

Is boomeranging still easy if you want to join a practice that’s different than your old one? Still have a good relationship with the partner but the work isn’t interesting....wouldn’t know the new partner

Make the boomerang move soon - returning within 6 months will not break your service and it could take a while for the whole process.

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.
