Would you quit and switch firms for either a senior position at another firm or for a financial analyst position if you did not get promoted in 2 years while others in your start class did?

I would change if you deserved that promotion. But if you suck dont blame the firm for your lack of competence. But regardless of the reason remember you will be starting fresh again (no reputation, new software, new methodologies, new clients, etc) so it might put you even more behind. Unless you have a horrible rep at your current firm or theres a toxic environment and need the fresh start. Good luck.

Yes wait until October. If you havent been passed up yet, just wait, work hard the rest of the year and see if you get promoted. If you're not a low performer I'm not sure why you wouldn't get promoted.

No, you will lose a year after you leave and still end up in the same place. Stick out 1 more year if you know with 90% certainty you will get promoted.

At KPMG it isn't working for you. Take the senior position at a different firm or hop to the analyst position for a fresh start.

Sounds like you may be an under-performer. I'd leave before you get let go

I'm confused, are you currently a 2nd year staff? If so, then wait till July, you will know by then. If u don't get promoted then bounce

Well I have seen people taking three years before getting promoted but if you think you deserved the promotion then think to leave. Some firms push you to get promoted or leave but KPMG is not one of those. I have seen people staying at one position for long times by choice and there is nothing wrong with it 😎
