Why do I feel so guilty about wanting to take another offer and leaving my team? I like my current teammates just HATE the client and project. I’ve also asked for a raise multiple times and have been told no. I’m underpaid but am up for promotion this year (June). I don’t think Deloitte can/willmatch. I want to take the money but I feel like I’m still learning leaderships skills and can see the potential for beefing out the management portion of my resume. What would you do? (Offer 50% more)

50% bump? Congrats, and good luck at the new role!

Haha thank you

Take the money and run. Why do you think you won’t learn leadership skills in the other firm? You are going to be doing similar stuff there and can learn, granted it might be harder, new network and all that. But 50% will significantly enhance your lifestyle.

Things are going downhill fast here. Get off the bus before it drives off the cliff. Salary compression is happening rapidly and promo timelines are being extended. That’s not the sign of a thriving organization. Realistically given current trends, new analysts can expect to take 25 years to make partner, and most of them will not even become equity partners. We have SCs making under 100k and soon managers will too. The value proposition of Deloitte simply isn’t there like it once was. We need to turnaround our business to avoid becoming a WITCH like we are poised to do soon.
