Would you leave the big 4 as a SM for 100% raise (all in) even if you knew you’d make PPMD within the next 3-6 years?

Do you think you’ll like the new job? If so yeah. I’ll take a guaranteed 100% raise now vs the promise of PPMD in 3-6 years.

EY recently dumped a bunch of heavy senior managers, actually making partner by sticking around is FAR from guaranteed.

Depends if the position is what you want and has room to advance. If it just for money, probably not the best idea. But no one can say they know they will be PPMD in 3-6 years. Too much can change on that time

What’s the other job? Double a SM salary is more than an MD makes. And you definitely can’t be guaranteed to make PPMD. I think you’d really have to love your job as a SM (or have serious doubts that you’d like the other job).

What’s the title?

That sounds like CAO comp. CAO is a great title because you can bounce from position to position collecting C-Suite comp and equity. I would take that over partner any day.

I think you can always come back.. and they will take you if you r good! 😀 now you have more than just experience in public accounting

It’s a controller position. Would probably enjoy the work. Less hours definitely. I just can’t get past the uncertainty of PPMD as well as length of time to get there. Really like EY though, it’s a hard decision!

I wish I was in your shoes 🤷‍♂️

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?
