SC here, currently staffed at FAANG as a PM, received an email from the same business line recruiter for an open position. Not sure how he found me and how I should approach.
I want to move forward with interview process but how may this impact my relation with my team on both sides as a D employee and a FAANG contractor?
Should I inform my D team about the opportunity?
And the worst case scenario, how would I look if I fail somewhere down the interview process but stay at my curre

Make sure everything stays confidential with the recruiter. Do the interviews and whatnot. Then if you don’t get the job NO ONE WILL KNOW. That’s the best part. No one else on your team will ever know unless you tell them or unless you are on an HR project that has something to do with a candidate pipeline. You’re good. Go for the interview and don’t say anything to anyone.

Keep it secret so your team at D never finds out until you submit 2 weeks notice. You are not the first person from D to possibly join a client. No bridges will be burned just by this.

Are you interviewing for the same business unit, or the exact team you're working with? A BU at FAANG scale is huge, but joining a 10 person team you work with today is different.

Would your client contacts speak well of you today? Is your project super secret? Do you have your name in the client email directory (usually the case if you have a client laptop or virtual desktop)? You could tell the recruiter that you're familiar with client culture and such due to consulting work, but they will look you up and may ask your client colleagues about you.

Not getting the offer isn't a very bad outcome. You're not going to be kicked off your engagement by the client for not getting an offer, nor would D fire you, assuming you keep things secret.

Thanks for the feedback, M1.

The recruiter mentioned about only the title but I'm not sure if it's the exact same program he is talking about. There tens, if not hundreds, of workstreams/programs within the same BU so I will find out more soon.

The client sings my praises for the PM work I have been doing and the value I add. They provide great feedback to the M. And yes I am in directory, all the organization chart, BU, report chain, title, workstream etc. are transparent.

For those who moved from a client serving role to an internal role in public accounting while at a fairly high level (experienced manager or senior manager), did you take a pay cut or does your pay stay flat when you transition with minimal increases in subsequent years? Also what role are you in now? I really like EY and the company. I’d like to look at moving to an internal role but I’m worried I’ve priced myself out (currently at around 140k comp in LCOL).

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on.

Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed?

I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
