Hi Everyone. I completed my 1 year in EY in October 2022. And in my profile, they have updated it to Senior Analyst now. But that was a progression that happens every year and I have not received the incremented salary.

Now that they are giving increments to everyone, will I receive both progression and increment or my progression will be counted as increment.

Highly confused.

Looking for a PwC referral. My current company has been great but we were acquired by a start up PE firm a year ago and I feel like the acquisition is starting to hinder my growth.

Trying to give this company a chance but see an opportunity at PWC I think I would be a great fit for. Any advice?

Is Operations paid the least at your respective firms? I was hired to a Client Service Delivery role with a heavy focus on project management.

I’ve been working at a rather prestigious midsized firm in a big city for almost a year and a half now. I have been having a lot of trouble picking up work from senior partners. We are required to bill at least 150 hours per month to meet our requirement. My months are typically only 110-130 hours. It seems like the senior partners already have their “go to” associate for things. Does anyone have any suggestions on how i can increase my workload? I reach out for work pretty much weekly.
