Complicated because we did a larger pay raise at the same time but I went from TC of $180k (SC) to $240k (M).
Can you ask - sure! Will they give it to you? No, probably not. FWIW, I say this with no specific knowledge of KPMG’s pay structure
Rising Star
Fwiw, this is my scenario at K too
We simply don’t know what this years numbers are. I got 7.5% at EY because of Covid merit raise freeze. It could be 20%. Do you have any say in it? Without a competing offer, no.
Get a competing offer and they might adjust up up to a reasonable %
Same boat but in all my years consulting we don’t really have a say as it’s been through so many rounds of approval before even coming to us by our comp communicator. Ofcourse we could push back with another offer but it’s also a risky move that could end with us still working here and a bad taste in the leadership’s mouth. I like to think positively that when promoted there will be some sort of ‘balancing’ effect for pay equity as in those like us in the lower band for our level will get a bigger jump to be within range of our peers vs those at the top range already getting a smaller bump to not too far outpace colleagues. As I’m not in KPMG HR or a partner, wouldn’t know for sure lolll
Got 20% last year
got 23% last year with 10% bonus
