West Monroe Fishes, how is your hierarchy? Analyst - Manager - Sr Manager - Partner? I have been contacted for a Senior Manager role so want to check if it's worth exploring?

yes theres senior directors and managing directors

We don’t use the term Partner specifically. Director is basically equivalent to a partner, but there are also Senior Directors, Managing Directors, and Senior Managing Directors. There aren’t very many of those top couple levels at the moment, they’re basically practice/office leads when they do exist.

I'm from EY-TAS... so you are saying better than EY-TAS M&A brand?

clients in a completely market space, most of these MMs you've probably never heard of

Thank you WM fishes for the information. Just one more quick question. Is there a time frame for which you are on one particular rank? For ex. In EY, usually you are Staff for 2 years, Senior for 3 years, Manager for 3 years and SM for any number of years before becoming Partner. Do you have any like that, especially for Senior Manager?

Senior Manager is probably one of the harder ones to peg a specific timeline to. At lower levels, there’s a more clear progression and timeline you can plan for. At SM, your ability to sell and open doors at target clients is key. The fastest, if you were truly a perfect fit and hit the ground running off the bat, I’d say was 2 years. That is unlikely though. I’d guess anywhere from 3-5 years, but ultimately depends on your fit.

I’m not an SM or higher so I don’t have hands on experience, this is just observation. If any of the other WMPers on here are SM or higher, chime in.

Crushed my final two interviews today. I will hear back sometime next week for a verbal offer for a Tech Solutions Consultant on the xWS team. Leaning towards an L4 but maybe they give L5 if the interview feedback was as good as I thought it went. Any thoughts on how I should negotiate base and equity? Maybe ask for sign on too?

I could sense the manager had no intentions to hire me permanently

Hi guys,

I need genuine suggestions. I was holding offer from IBM and Wipro & now have got a good offer from a mid size organization.

I would like to talk professionally so that they provide me a matching CTC or in case, they can't at least they don't block me for future openings.

Please suggest, if anyone can share their experiences.
