Sister works at EY, during her interview process while negotiating compensation they told her that they pay the lowest amongst big 4. Anyone else experience this? Is this true?

Why would they tell her that in the first place?

My thoughts are all things equal EY and KPMG pay less than D and Pdubs. All depends on supply and demand for specific skills.

A couple years ago EY was hiring PwC FS seniors as managers. I saw many folks that got passed up for promotion or in some cases nowhere near promotion go to EY a level up.

Pwc pays the least. And they require you to stay an associate for 3 years.

Yes it's true. I got offers from D, EY, &a ACN and the EY was the lowest. There was no negotiation on the pay. My ACN recruiter even told me EY was the lowest.

I came from Accenture and they gave me a hell of a raise. Accenture gave me an out of cycle raise and they even beat that once I told them what my new salary was. That was a few years ago though so perhaps times are changing.

@ey4 so why didn't you stay at ACN then?

like

@KPMG2 - Sorry that was a confusing description I gave. ACN gave me an out of turn raise and then EY (when they called me back for the formal offer) came over the top of ACN's raise when I told them I got an increase since we last spoke. Also work life balance at ACN was awful so I was walking no matter what.

like

@KPMG2 I didn't have to show an offer. It took a few months for them to call me back b/w the verbal offer and the final offer and during that time I received the raise at ACN. After that I told EY my new salary. I'm a SM and my base is 194k

Probably...

S1, pwc did the exact same thing a few years ago. Hired a bunch of ey people a level up and they all shit the bed

Yes. They do

Shit the bed meaning?

This is true and in experience if you get an offer thats at competitive market rate and they match, they act like they moved mountains to do you a favor.

Pretty sure it's pwc that pays the least

But I hear the culture is pretty ok if that makes it any better.

@Principal 1 - are you EY? Any recommendations on how to navigate that process?

@ey4 did you have to show your offer?

@ey4 what level are you and how much is the base at EY?

EY1 - if you want to renegotiate at EY you need an alternative offer and must be ready to walk away. Otherwise they act like it is a gargantuan task and stall.

Applied here and interviewed (presumably to the final round) and didn’t end up with an offer, I think due to the specific experience I’ve had so far.

I am just unsure whether to accept the offer as I was waiting for kpmg reply as I want B4 on my resume which apparently is a big deal. Is BT also good on resume for future employers ??
