Third year Manager with 170k base. Looking to exit consulting, move to the DC/VA/MD metro area and (here is the kicker) not take a pay cut. Realistic?

Your managers aren’t equivalent to our managers. It’s our 4th Level

DC has some good corporate headquarter roles available. It is a pretty high cost of living city, so just make sure to factor that in if your not coming from NY/San Fran

@d1. Pwc has 4 levels if you count exp associate. A manager is a manager is a manager across the big 4.

Don't believe any of the lies that your bosses sell you

There is no experienced associate level at pwc. It’s associate (2-3 yrs) senior (2-3 yrs) manager (2-4 yrs) director. # years might be a better comparison

PwC managers are at 4-6 yrs exp when they become managers so you’re correct!

Best of luck

Damn. Our managers start at 120k

No

I moved from DC to NYC and it didn't affect my comp. You should be ok - the cities are equiv in HRs books.

Tough. Similar situation. Took a cut in pay but overall comp comparable with stock discounts, potential for RUs etc. Not in DC though.

D3 which city?

SC1: oh? What are the levels at PWC? Your own website has M as the third level.

Edit: I see what you’re saying. Hmm didn’t know that

You may be able to find that here depending on your background.

At d1...using your logic. Accenture managers are the equivalent of deloitte partners.

Those guys have what appears to be 843 stops on the way to manager in their C&DO group.

I still stand behind my previous comment. All mgrs in big 4 and acn are the same

At D, it’s 2-3 years as an A, 2-3 as a C, and 2-5 (usually 3) as a SC before M. If PWC managers are at 7-9 years of exp, then I stand corrected. I don’t know

Not realistic if you want to have a life. Good luck to you

Deloitte folks do you guys have S1,S2 or S3 before manager

I’ve done some soul searching of late and established I’d love to be offered a FTE role in my current company. I think this is partly due to never having had a full time job which I’ve enjoyed and which have valued my contributions. I think this is due to wanting to feel accepted. I know acceptance needs to start with me etc but I think redundancy and workplace gaslighting has meant I’ve never achieved growth and status in one company where I can truly grow. Anyone else has this?
