40% and no more bs from D

likeuplifting

where to?

40% but stayed at the same firm. Hinted at my manager about wages elsewhere. They then did a market correction for $10k then 3 months later, got promoted. Couldn’t have worked out better.

40% and jumped into B4 from industry. Best decision ever.

30%. Got a great title. Get to build my own team and have great WLB.

75% bump, went from 60-70 to 45-50hrs per week, and working with advanced tech that will be great experience for the next 20-30 years of my career

What level did you leave at BCG1? And what’s your role now?

100% bump, went from 70 hrs to 45 hrs per week at FAANG

What position did you land?

2020 grad M&A/PE Associate in LCOL area thinking about moving to a ECVC/M&A boutique. I generally like the work I do and the people I work with, but I really don’t like the hours and the constant late nights and weekends. Currently on pace for 2250. Boutique I have been eyeing has billable hour requirement of 1500-1600 and comes with a 20-25% paycut. Is this a stupid idea and should I grind it out until I can move in house? Will this ruin my opportunities down the road?
