Stay at Accenture (2nd yr Manager, would be up for SM December 2022) or take startup offer (Director)? current base $135k, bonus $15k, 401k match: dollar for dollar up to 6% of base. Stage E startup valuation from recent round back in March of $2+b: base $175k, target bonus 15% ($26k), .008% equity, no 401k match, free health/dental/vision for me and family.

The first line of post: stay at ACN or take startup offer, additional details, currently in MCOL city, start up would be permanent remote with 1week a month flight travel to HQ post COVID.

Director sounds better than senior manager. Director at a start up sounds even better in my opinion. So I'd recommend going for it

100% startup OP and huge congrats.

So based on most recent raise, your stake is worth $160k+?

Seems obvious to me if so. Go startup.

You are correct, thanks for the perspective!

What’s the vesting period for the 401k OP

Vested for first year but been here for 6 years so long past earning that

YOE?

It is on the fast end but not out of question, 2 years Analyst to Consultant, 2 years Consultant to Manager, 2-4 years Manager to Senior Manager, technically could’ve push for it this year but would’ve been a long shot

like

Yes. You are way underpaid for an M2

This was base as of Dec 20 (COVID resulted lower than desired raise), I’d think I could end up at closer to $150 base come Dec 21 if I stayed

I was making $105 as L9 in Jan, i now make $170. Cause of a jump. Even if you get promoted the oops will be about the same it’ll still be director level mostly because of your yoe

Go get ur pay now.

Senior attorneys at v100, how common is it for attorneys who start at small firms to lateral to biglaw? Have you worked with any?

Recently been through a rough job search and finally landed an offer with a mid size bank in their risk practice. People say that the culture there is quite political and bitter but I’ll learn a heck lot and get a new opening on my resume. Salary is the same. The other option is to take a consulting job that pays me 50k more but do the same work! Thoughts? Thanks!
