Thoughts on OW London? Comp, WLB, project mix and culture relative to other T2s. Is their tech practice growing/good?

We’re great!
- Comp: think we’re in line with M and B after our comp adjustment last year, BCG seems to be slightly ahead
- WLB: depends a lot on team and project, ~55 hours a week with no weekend work is the target // we have teams looking into building norms around sustainable WLB specifically given the crunch over 2021
- Project mix: almost every practice you see on our website is represented in London, though of course with slight FS bias
- Culture: no way of comparing since I’ve only workednin OW, but everyone (less 2-3) I’ve worked with has been smart and nice; great investment into office events and other aspects of culture now that we’re moving to be in-person again (gradually)

Don’t know a whole lot about our TMT practice unfortunately, but have heard of some cool clients there. Unless you mean “tech” as in tech consulting, in which case some would probably be done in our Digital practice, though we don’t really do those large scale implementation projects you’d see in ACN or the likes.

I’d apply for a Senior Consultant or Associate role in the Private Capital practice. Senior Consultant will probably be safer so you get a bit more room to get used to the way of working here - doesn’t affect total comp at year end if you’re able to show you can perform at a higher level after joining.

That said, no need to stress out too much about this, we’ll sort it out as part of the interview process!

Hi Everyone!

A company has made an offer and I wanted to understand if i'm being made a fool.

The monthly compensation is 1,37,500 (16,50,000 yearly) and Variable component (Bonus) is 1,50,000.

However in the offer it says "You shall be paid an annual compensation of Rs. 16,50,000/- per annum Cost to Company."

Which to me sounds like it doesn't consider 1,50,000 to be a part of CTC which is suspicious to me.

How should I deal with this?

Thank you!

Hello, after doing some research I believe I’m being underpaid. About 4 months ago HR did a market analysis for my role. They bumped my salary for about $2k. I’m a mid-level Executive assistant with 6 years of experience and currently supporting 5 executives at a fortune 50 company. One C level and 4 Vice Presidents. I’m currently making $61,000 with bonus included. Based on my research I should at least be making $71,400. I have a check in with my boss tomorrow and I am asking for a raise.

I was called into HR because a coworker overheard a conversation between me and another colleague taking about cable/streaming shows that we watched or recorded. I mentioned that I recorded a few true-crime shows. My colleague jokingly said, "I hope I'm not on your hit-list!". I replied, "Not anymore." HR pulled me in to say a coworker complained about me talking about hit-lists, and they were now scared. HR wouldn't say who complained, so do I have a right to ask about the resolution to this?

My coworker always takes a super long lunch. How does he have the time to get anything done?
