Isn’t Hawaii expensive? That seems kind of low

I know someone who came into AFS MC level 8 at 120k and I think it’s towards the top (but not at the top) of the band. Not sure how location should factor in, but I don’t think it’s low (for the offer—it could be low for Hawaii and/or your experience)

I’m from Hawaii, great place to visit but i wouldn’t want to live there on $120k.

Yea can’t compare any US city to an island thousands of miles from the mainland.

Almost everything is imported and the cost of that is baked into everything you buy. A gallon of milk doesn’t cost $8 anywhere else in the USA...

Do you have a tech background?

Non technical, non IT

Where did u find this job? Did not know there was Accenture in Hawaii... I think it’s good enough. U don’t go there to build on ur career

I really want to go back. Would you mind sharing contacts/projects over there related to consulting? If so I can dm you.

Not enough money.
My folks lived there as contractors and it was expensive for them - they lasted 3 years. They bought groceries at Costco but everything else was pricey.
Apart from that, they loved every second of it. They learned scuba diving, visited all the islands, and met some incredible people.

Tons of people live in Hawaii on a lot less than that. Imo living in Hawaii isn't about material stuff it's about living in one of the most beautiful places in the world, and you have plenty of money to get by your basic needs and then some.

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 regularly interface with leadership internally and at the client. But, I am aligned to the “Operations” capability and make the least of my teammates who perform seemingly identical work but are aligned to “Strategy and Consulting.” I worry I’m on a career path to being paid the least wherever I go, because Operations is in my title and background.

Hi Fishes,

I got an offer from PwC. The joining date that I had agreed from my side was 2 June. But I don't know that even in probation the NP is 90 days (it was mentioned in the release doc as 1 month but I didn't take that screenshot as proof). I told the whole issue to my recruiter and she sent a confirmation mail stating that she will revise my joining date by 90 days without issue. Is there any chance they can revoke the offer? I have put down my papers already.

I have no idea what to ask companies for.
