What is typical comp for an AD in big pharma in a commercial strategy role? Currently at 230k+20% in consulting, trying to gauge if pay would go up down or stay the same if I jumped to a client role.

Did you ever do something embarassing or "disreputable" in your younger years that you think people would think "no one that's made partner has ever done that"?

Any partner looking for a mentee? I’m two years out of college and just started with a new consulting firm. Would appreciate any insight. Thanks!

What’s your advice to improve one’s executive presence?

EY MD 🐠 , I’m a newly promoted MD and have a few questions on comp timelines I’m hoping you can help answer since there have been 0 comms to MDs on this 😔:
1. I’ve heard we don’t find out new salaries until mid-Aug with others below PP. Given others new comp doesn’t start until Oct, do you know if that’s when our new comp starts too even though our new titles are already effective?
2. Does the MD rating/comp timeline continue to follow the timeline for others going forward after the first yr?

I work my best when I am busy and have upcoming deadlines. It’s either procrastination or just short of it, but I never miss a deadline and clients/partners are consistently happy with my work.

How do you get the proverbial shit done?

@Partners - Is it possible for your firm to match a competing offer? How would one best approach this?

I have been offered a position at a non-US B4 with a 2 year path to partner. I know one of the partners at the local firm and have the support of the regional service line lead, and am bringing a specialized skill set they are trying to open a new business around. The KPIs seem achievable and I’ll be in charm school to help build support within that timeline. Most of me thinks a 2 year path under these circumstances realistic but my inner skeptic is jaded. Anything I might have missed?

I do things (late nights/weekends) that I don't think my managers/partner knows about since everything is running well - directly correlated with elected hours spent. Is it weird to bring this up?

Dear partners/principals...
1) which big-4 do you believe has a better retirement model? the unfunded retirement benefits package that pays out after retirement?
2) is it worth switching from one big-4 to another big-4 and having to re-build everything so to speak, if both roles are relatively same but comp is 20% higher? and also possibly joining a bigger practice area...

Curious what a Partner’s bonus range looks like, cash comp and RSUs
