Question for some of the senior partners on this bowl: do you mind sharing what does the the top end of partner comp look like? Is it like 2-3M annually? And how many years it took you to get there after becoming partner?

The higher you go the less standardized comp becomes, and the less it is driven by tenure, and the more it varies both within and across firms. There are firms where successful senior partners make 8 figures.

Role matters as well, not just tenure and performance. While leadership roles are visible some of the most lucrative draws come from market-facing roles and impact.

From my experience, $2-3 is pretty typical for senior partners (some are higher). Top performers cross 2 as early as year 5 or 6. Others take longer (or don't reach).

P1 you mind sharing which firm you’re at and service line? OP works at EY and in tech consulting at least, don’t think I know of anyone that hit even $1M by yr 5 or 6.

I currently make 78k at Lockheed but I’m not doing what I’d like to be doing and i felt stuck and after many conversations with my manager and no solution in sight, I started applying elsewhere. I just recently got an offer from a smaller AI company for 95k that I plan to accept. I’m happy to make the jump, I just don’t know how my manager/coworkers will react when I tell them I’m leaving.
