Think I'm going to get offered a high paying role $200k+ with a 25% bonus. The catch: the company was just acquired. In a year the brand might cease to exist but will be part of a new, larger company. In my experience mergers result in huge layoffs and high paying roles from the company that were inherited in the acquisition are the first to go. I'm bummed.

Any ideas how EY comp compares to Deloitte?

Where does b8 band for SE lie ? How is the hierarchy here in natwest.

I recently interviewed with Natwest and I got confirmation that they wanted to offer a role. Salary negotiations were started. However, now I got an email from the hiring manager that hiring for my role has been paused due to the ongoing cost of living crisis. He expects to resume the hiring for the role in Q1 '23 and would resume the process then. So is it the end? Honestly, I don't expect him to come back. But what do you think?

Anyone else have to deal with your head of Brand Planning constantly trying to tear down the value of Comms Planning? Is it fear that we will replace them? Or perhaps he's just fundamentally insecure.

Just got an accept!! (GPS S&A) congratulations to those who have accepts, fingers crossed for those still waiting (it’ll be over soon!), and thinking of those who’ve just been denied.

I was recently promoted, and now part of my team report to me. I'm now able to see their pay rates and I am honestly so disappointed in the company. Especially since we just gave annual raises in Feb, plus we can all see where the money is going and it's not to the employees. Makes me sick
