I really loved most the people I worked with, but ultimately, I felt that their insistence on paying hardworking people well below market value, rewarding cronyism, and not being able to produce a transparent and logical career “framework” was a little...shall I say...greasy.

I DM’ed you my very specific insights.

SA1 is right, we’ve got a crappy career framework, but I got a good pay bump coming. As a SM at PwC, I’d suggest coming in as a Solution Principal. You’d do delivery but have sales responsibility. If you’re a senior SM, maybe come in as PAL or Client Service Lead (if you’re big in sales)

I am looking to move to industry and not another consulting firm, but slalom is different, so I am considering.

analyst -> consultant (this is a large bucket with folks from anywhere 2YoE to 20 YoE) -> solution architect -> solution principal -> practice area lead -> practice area director

Alternatively analyst > consultant > solution architect (only for technical roles) > principal consultant > client service lead > client service partner

In my market CSL is less pure-sales, and more the traditional partner role, I.e account or portfolio delivery oversight & farming, whereas “sales executive” is more focused purely on sales. PAL is more just recruiting/staffing/thought leadership. Also, in my market, SA is technical-only and not a managerial position. Principal (SP and PC) level is like SM/1st year partner

HCL Technologies offer being delayed and recruiter keeps saying that there's a problem with their "Offer release portal system." I have already stated my issues with relocating until after I have the offer signed and ready. The project is supposed to start on the 19th and I'm supposed to join before, or on that date. It's already coming up soon and I don't have the official offer so that I can confidently start the relocation process. Has anyone else recently dealt with this?

Have new analyst on the team with an MBA and project experience. After working with them for 2 months it’s apparent that there are 0 consulting skills (excel, outlook, PowerPoint) and they freeze up even on internal calls. They are young and coachable, and I offered to put time into that. However at a company event they made no effort to get to know the team and chose to stick to their familiar colleagues in their home office. I’d like to ask for a new resource but interested in feedback.
