What are the salaries looking like in FDD for S1? Looking for perspectives from MM & B4. Is there an actual difference in hours between MM & B4? How much of a loss on exit opportunities would there be at a GT, RSM, BDO compared to the B4?

Why would you want to leave PwC and go to these firms? Honest question. Wondering if there is something specific you’re looking for.

Nice! Work life balance in this industry is not easy to come by.

I got a decent pay raise going from B4 to RSM FDD - maybe not the case for everyone especially right now. For WLB, it just depends unfortunately. In audit I experienced a lot of autonomy throughout the year and then busy season you couldn’t do anything but work. FDD you work much closer with managers and directors on a day-to-day so their working style has a large impact on your WLB. Having said that I’ve had a mixture of good and not so good, but I’m glad I made the switch. I would get into FDD asap and then worry about exit ops down the road

I’ve been told my company is changing my title from Associate Director of BD to Sales Executive. I’m concerned it reads like a title demotion. Is it just semantics? How will this look for my career development? Curious about the standard perception of Sales Executive from a seniority perspective. Where does this land on the sales roles hierarchy? For context, it’s a professional services firm, I’ve been there 3+years, and they gave a Sales Executive title to someone who just started 5mo ago.
