I like the responsibility given

Being 23-24 (2 years in) and having Partners & Senior leaders lean heavily on you is a nice feeling.

In addition, at my level (Senior Consultant) you're typically working through the details for a given solution.. so its interesting to be a solution architect & often the point of reference for clients/internal stuff

At KPMG, was going to go up for M last year but it would have been a tad early (only 2.5 years at senior) so I decided to push it back to this year. This year, after talking about my business case since last summer, I was now just told I won’t even be given the opportunity to go up for M at all, with very weak reasoning. I pour a lot of time and effort into my job and this felt like a true sand banging. Has this happened to anyone else? Is it firm being cheap w/ the current economy? TIA.
