This summer I’m due for a promotion to senior in the transaction services practice at a consulting firm that’s a direct competitor to the Big 4. I’d like to move to Big 4 for a better salary, even if it comes at the cost of worse hours. Do I need to wait for the promotion to make that transition or could I feasibly get a promotional hire into a senior role at a big 4 with 1.5-2 years of experience?

Big four usually play it safe and don’t promote transfers. I’d wait.

I’ve been told my company is changing my title from Associate Director of BD to Sales Executive. I’m concerned it reads like a title demotion. Is it just semantics?

For context, it’s a professional services firm, I’ve been there 3+years, and they gave a Sales Executive title to someone who just started 5mo ago.
