Pwc brethren: with this standardized cohort model coming online, we should be able to find out what each cohort level makes if we post our salary and cohort level. Anyone interested?

In other words, whenever you are promoted to a new grade (e.g., SA, Mgr, Director) you must start at the "1" level for that grade (e.g., S1, M1, D1, etc.,). --this is part of the reason why I'm pretty annoyed with the new cohort model.

@pwc5 I'm not sure about why is it about the cohort system that annoys you. It has worked for ages at strategy firms. @S& the cohorts are designed so that the 1 level above is always more money than the highest cohort of the previous level

My understanding was that the adjustments were specific to grad degrees and location. You know of any other adjustments within the cohort model?

Yes

I'm trying to go from EA to SA2. Thoughts on plausibility??

Lol @ pwc3

@pwc2: the snark is strong with you.

@pwc3: by ea do you mean second year associate?

P2 If you can skip cohorts why not ?

OP- Yeah 2nd year EA came in at that level through graduate program rated as a 1 last year and probably again this year

@pwc6: I meant tacky in that we've seen the Deloitte layoffs on the app all week, and I know several friends who got the axe from our firm, and now I'm posting about sharing salaries. Just don't want this to come across as rubbing anything in.

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
