Depends on rep of that boutique. Is it just another body shop specialising in an area or more than that? If former, not worth it coz in 1-2 years u will be back in the market

Depends how far along into your career you are and how strong that boutique name is

Please elaborate EY1... How far along should one be in your opinion to move to a boutique firm and why?

Too much risk. I wouldn't

Experience at a larger and more recognized company early on in your career pays larger dividends down the road. Both in terms of brand recognition and the variety/quality of experience and coaching you get.

30% may sound like a large bump but 30% of a junior salary is not and may not be with the future potential accelerated trajectory

Has anyone here renegotiated their salary after a short time being in a role? I accepted a position and I like what I do but I realize that the workload requires a lot to see success and I feel a bit burned out already with my 40 hours/week and occasional extra 30 minutes to an hour a day.

I am stuck between putting in my time and showing my value and asking for an increase to validate doing so to avoid job hopping after a year or so.

For people who have profit sharing what have your experiences been? Ours is every March but it is a variable number based on how we do the prior year (duh obviously) but also only my boss gets to decide and he gives no criteria on why he chooses what he does.

Also there’s no way to know how my bonus compares to my peer
