ZS Associates
I have a couple of questions for ZS fishes-

1. Is it possible to turn down a promotion at ZS? I'm currently happy with my responsibilities as a Decision Analytics Consultant and don't want any added responsibilities in the near future (next 5 years)

2. Is it possible to shape up a career path in the BC stream which doesn't involve business development? I don't want to get into working on SOWs and RFPs.

OP- do post your findings here post discussion with your PAM/PD.

As far as I know, that’s not possible
OR could be possible if you agree to keep Same salary.

There is another dynamics of average in team. With that thought, your AC will cross your and go on to become Manager, which will be very tedious situation to be in for everyone

Does anyone have any insight into partners retiring early? I am at a point where I need to consider leaving if I am not aiming for partner. I don’t see myself working past my 40s. My partner and I are not big spenders and anticipate have enough to retire comfortably in 40s (obviously a lot can change). I have been assured I will become SM in next year (currently 31 years old).
