If you think you’re going to jump from Manager @ KPMG -> VP in industry, we need to have a heart-to-heart

Makes sense....In the states, most folks graduate from college at age 22-23 and it would take 5 years to be promoted to manager at Big4.

Yea op the title means jack shit in industry, anybody can make mgr or sen mgr if they truly want, mostly tenure based unless you’re a true dip shit, no guarantee in the outside game

What would you do

Make manager then switch. Your income will grow much quicker once you make manager and then make a couple of strategic moves.

Okay thank you for the advice !

Lol

Manager title and VP title are al relative. If your skills and experience warrant the title you shouldn’t have any problem. If you’re qualified for a VP role while a SA then apply. They’re not going to decide to hire you or not hire you into a role just because of a title in a completely different organization.

Hello Fishes,

I currently hold offers from below:
IBM - 15.5 LPA
CTS - 18.5 LPA
PWC India - 16 LPA
Oracle Financial Services Software(OFSS) - 21 LPA

Planning to join OFSS as I will work in product development team and can work in any shift timings with WFH.

Today I had my 2nd round interview with EY GDS and got rejected.
Do I need to worry about this and feel low?
Could EY GDS would have been better instead of OFSS?

Please provide your valuable inputs.

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
