Beyond the snark, I don't think so.

More work, more scrutiny, small raise. Basically the best benefit is your exit options just improved drastically.

Same q- is there anything at all to look forward to ?

Raise sucks

like

You get invited to more stuff, more leeway to spend firm money on events (though still no approval authority), often no boss on site

like

You get to sell all your favorite stocks to meet independence requirements

What exit options though? I left industry to join consulting, and I have no great desire to go back.

Because the title more likely maps to a sr manager or director role at most clients, whereas SCs wouldn't be considered for those roles as easily...

Better exit ops.

Big raise, maybe?

Money?

Raise was less than 10%.

@d3 - ugh, what's the point then?

10% raise senior to manager, unless you were making $130k go get another offer and ask for more.

M3, I was making more than that.

More responsibility, higher expectations, cooler roles, less grunt work, one step closer to PPD, more PTO, more flexibility to set your own schedule... a little bit more money and a bit more AIP... and yeah, more interesting exit options

Humor me: why are the exit ops stronger at mgr than sc?

I’m location flexible (working mostly remote) and a petite South Asian young woman who is budget conscious. Would you recommend Astoria or Greenpoint / other Brooklyn neighborhoods for me? I don’t care about being super hip, would like to be in a neighborhood where I feel safe living alone (first time doing so).

Need your valuable comments.

“Keep costs down”???? I am happy to keep costs down by not working on this ducking matter anymore. Maybe stop saying yes to matters that are too small to justify our rates and staffing an expensive senior person on them when you’re already dying trying to get anything staffed. You didn’t have to do shit on this matter, didn’t hear you complaining about my taking the lead and managing everything for you when that was happening. >.>

Does anyone think it’s a good idea to beg for a job and put your personal life out there to get sympathy, because that is what I am seeing every day on LinkedIn and then the recruiters and everybody will comment and send the jobs and they will end up with a job or interview the next day.
I’m getting close to the point of doing that because it seems like it is working.
