Comp is quite competitive on the way in. Slower growth, unless you are in a hyper-growth market. So, negotiate the salary you want in two years, not the one you have how.

@sc2 is performance gauged yearly?

Not as competitive as big 4

$lalom consultants come in about 20% more than an entry level big 4 partner, but advancement is more performance based

Yah but that's because you came as an experienced. Im a manager and if I go to Slalom or somewhere else I'll substantially increase my salary as well probably as much as Kpmg senior manager or new directors

Slalom is a load of crap. You make 50% of your pay on the bench

PwC1 that's 4, maybe 5 years out of date. Even then it was only for a certain class of "project employees" who got paid for each hour they worked. It was actually a pretty sweet deal for someone who wanted IC flexibility without all of the IC risk.

Haha about new associate. Go cash a check with your superiority. Wasteman!

Continuous feedback just rolled out this summer, so performance should be checked every month or so - but bonus and comp are paid/adjusted yearly. We don't do a stack rank or leveling... more individualized.

I have also seen offices do promotions as necessary.

This might be the only consulting firm that when they say you will get promoted in a year or less that actually follows thru w it.

Dress code?

like

Dress code is basically “match your client“. Around the office, mostly business casual, with jeans, etc. acceptable if they’re in good shape. As clients – even old school financial services clients – get more relaxed in dress code, we are following suit.

However in project i was treated as team member l. Initially i was okay as i thought i will be familiar with environment and later will take more responsibility.
But then they gave me release after few months.
No hike also this year.
Future also seems unclear as i feel low self-esteem seeing collegues my experience earning well and having better roles.
I really think joining IBM was wrong decision.

I accepted a $115K base salary, 13% bonus, 10k sign on bonus (scientist supervisor) job and two weeks later, got a $135K base, 17% bonus, and 15K sign on bonus (Senior scientist role) offer from another company. Should I accept the new offer ? How do I tell the previous company about this? Also, I’ve already negotiated with the first company and the $115K base is the negotiated salary. I really do not prefer one company over the other. They’re both great! I’m very confused here. TIA🙏
