Once you are unemployed, what you used to make is irrelevant.

Yes only to get my foot in the door somewhere and then keep applying for something else. I would not want to remain unemployed when you could be making 75% of what you were making. Something is better than nothing.

I am in process of take a step down to individual contributor position from previous manager position. Haven’t received an offer yet but I hope I will in next few weeks. It is a big hit on ego and self-esteem. Especially when people your age are conquering business world. But this is best for my mental health and sanity.

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
