What are first year consulting manager salaries in the Charlotte office and other offices? Trying to determine range (talking salary no bonus). I was just told mine would be 87,800 which feels low...

Leave and get paid somewhere else. Hate to say it, but I have this conversation a lot. People that stick with a consulting firm for more than 3 years are getting hosed. They just don't keep up with salaries compared to experienced hires. I was Accenture out of school, then industry, Accenture again, and now EY. 11 years in

I don't think you need to be a SC before M in many part of ACN. I have seen people came in with a MBA were SC when they joined the firm or someone in CD&O is SC. Most of the time, I see people promote from C to M directly without being SC.

Wondering if OP got promoted super early. That's the only way I could see someone having comp that low even at Accenture. Senior consultants in big 4 make $100-120k all day.

Yes Accenture out of school, about 4.5 years at the firm, top performer since the beginning (always Sig above rating other than my first year). I don't necessarily agree with saying being promoted early means lower salary especially if they claim it should be performance based. My primary complaint is that I see analyst starting at 75-80 in other cities and consultants starting higher than me. Been told it's due cost of living adjustments but it shouldn't be that drastic
