Wouldn’t you be like the most hated person by all the jocks? Have fun getting stuffed into lockers
Salary range depends on the position/role for which you’re being considered. Glassdoor is pretty spot on for base salary. For VP, also depends on the base you’re getting but I’ve heard bonuses of 40K are possible
Id say no to that. First of all GS culture is tough, hours are awful and you wont get the same bonus that revenue producers get
I made the move - so far so good. Great benefits including 1 month paternity leave for non primary caregiver, gym and health centers on site. Folks in IA seem very friendly and open to training/mentoring. Project driven environment where end of year will have longer hours. Total comp driven environment so salary bump may not be as high as you would prefer, but bonus is pretty high for IA in industry.
@EY1 mind sharing your salary range at GS and how much they willing to bump from your EY salary?
SO just got a VP offer for 150k base at Citi in NY if that helps
GS hours are hell! If by chance you’re leaving consulting for work/life balance, GS is not your answer friend
In a similar boat as OP. Thinking about moving to IA. Most of the folks I spoke with in the team mentioned that the work-life balance is okay. 9-6/6:30 most days and otherwise project specific. Obv there will be days when there is a tonn of work and other days when it’s relatively light.
Benefits are on-par with the Industry norm. Pay for an associate is 112K+Bonus which seems on-par too.
I kinda like compliance related work.
Interned at GS, if you’re not client-facing you’re a second class citizen. You’ll work like crazy, get paid okay, but spend most of your time in meetings and doing menial tasks for years before anyone thinks you’re important.
I will say though, the compline teams are becoming much more important, and will be a growth area so opportunities may be more frequent
