Working at a big four with an annual compensation of 48K. Location is columbia, SC, and am looking to switch. Been here for ~1.5 years now. Core skills are Alteryx, Tableau, SQL and deck prep/maintenance. What kind of compensation can I expect in FL? Suggestions for roles/firms to look at? Please post any relevant tips. Thanks!!

Bro they massacred you in comp, I'm an intern at a f500 in south Carolina making $26 an hour

Good for you!! And I agree with you- I’m depressingly underpaid 😒. About $25 an hour

Even for lower COL area that seems low.

I see. Do you have an approximate number/role/firm that I can consider? Thank you

I’m assuming you’re in PWC’s equivalent of the SDC/Managed Services. Switch firms or go to a smaller one

I went from EY’s Delivery Center to Deloitte in their consulting department and know many more that have done the same to other firms big 4, smaller, or even FAANG/Fortune 100’s. Just get your story straight and kill those interviews😎

$26 an hour isn't much more than 48k, what am I missing?

Yeah I was pointing out that as an intern, my comp was a bit higher.
Not In a condescending way, but in the fact that they really did him dirty comp wise.

Sounds like OP joined a service delivery center, cost cutting department, or similar.

Those positions aren't great for growth and development. They're more just a revolving door and thats the stated business model for some of them.

Doesn't mean one can't use them strategically to advance a career outside of that firm, but I wouldn't expect to have opportunities within that firm if you started at a delivery center.

Hey there OP. That is certainly a path forward. Can be done. Has been done.

I'd just make sure you have a good story. And you have good list of skills and if you were to step outside of these big 4 or similar you'd be valuable.

Homie commented above that a smaller firm would be in the money as far as a target. Certainly true. And smaller firms *CAN* often be much sharper and do much higher quality work compared to these giant oceans of mediocrity where the rule of thumb is "I'll be gone you'll be gone". ***Generally speaking***

But I've also seen some folks in these types of departments make it to another big 4 in the real consulting side.

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company.
