Lol where are the % numbers OP asked for ?

likeupliftingfunny

It’s dependent on which group within consulting and is wildly variable depending on company performance. Pay bands are wide and overlap

^Not true, Accenture has set buckets for each level.

What would be the ranges for the positions?

Principals/senior principals/ principal directors are alternatives to manager/SM/MD. They’re more of an expert track where you’re expected to deliver on projects + produce thought leadership pieces rather than sell (at the SP and PD level). A PD is an L5 whereas MDs are L4s so it is a lesser title. However, the path to MD isn’t necessarily closed to this track though.

This is very helpful. Could you please elaborate a little more? For someone coming from outside, L5 or L4 which I have heard before but no one has explained it clearly. For example, M has X1, X2 levels etc and these are typical salary bands. X1 - $125-150K, X2 - $150-175K, etc; I’m just making these numbers and X1 etc just to explain. Could you please explain it for folks who don’t understand these acronyms? Feel free to directly PM me. I truly appreciate it.

A director at Accenture is an MD except they aren’t expected to sell work (and subsequently paid less)

So not an MD.
