Been working remote for 4 years but got offered a job with 2X comp but it requires travel. A bit nervous if it’s worth it given I’ll be away from my partner, money would be good but the relationship is most important.

Thoughts from people who experienced similar?

What’s the deal with MBAs? I mean really? Some are saying that it’s pretty much necessary while others say it’s a waste of time and you don’t really need one because of its cost and it doesn’t translate to salary.

I could definitely use some advice on salary and negotiation. Deloitte offered me $80K for audit and EY offered $85K for tech-risk consulting. I’m surprised only because I thought consulting paid significantly higher than audit. Both the positions are based out of NYC. I’m a grad student also halfway through my CPA. I’m not trying to sound unsatisfied but I’m just curious about room for negotiation with EY tech consulting?

EY vs PwC
I’m currently an M @EY and might consider moving to PwC as SM in the next months.
I love my current job, projects and the management at EY, but moving to PwC would give me about 20% raise (M—> SM transition).
At EY i need to wait until 2024 for SM (maybe 2023 - if I discuss my aspirations with my Partner, with whom I share very cordial connect).

What is the advice of fellow fish bowlers: stay with EY (familiar environment) or move to PwC (more salary, no connections) ?

@C3.ai, Inc. I am currently negotiating an offer for senior solutions architect (post sales, implementation) what is a reasonable salary expectation for this role. Thanks

Looking for advice on my move. What would you pick out of these options?

Location 1 (Asia): X net salary, 90% savings rate, no WLB
Location 2 (Middle East): 1.8X net salary, 60% savings rate, no WLB
Location 3 (Australia): X net salary, 50% savings rate, consistent WLB

Leaning towards 3 but feeling that I am leaving so much money on the table.

Company was acquired - losing benefits and company is attempting a true-up in salary to make up for it. Is it unreasonable to expect the true-up to account for my federal and state income taxes I’ll now have to pay on the incremental salary? For example, let’s say I’m losing $2k in annual reimbursements for phone and internet. This is a reimbursement so it’s tax free. My state and federal tax rate is a combined 37% so I would ask for $2739 to account for the taxes I’ll pay on that

Can I live in NYC with a base salary of 190k USD? TC of 230k. I come from a middle cost country, earning 60k as an analyst living a comfy life. But after MBA I stand to return to my company and could stay in the NY office with said comp. No idea what this would look like, lifestyle -wise and on what does it depend? Assuming 2k in student loan payments for 3 years.

How does an Exec VP compare to Deloitte partner? I choose to believe the comp to be in $1M range as shown in attached Glassdoor report but then there is another Glassdoor report from 5 EVPs which shows comp to be under $400K. Not sure which one is closer to reality. Anybody from CapGemini here to advise?

Looking for some career advice: fairly happy with my current situation at KPMG but the workload has been unusually high recently and likely will be for a while. Decent salary just not where I think I should/could be and raises/promotions are typically only once a year. My team is great and I actually enjoy the work, but I’ve been contemplating whether I should apply to MBB or other top consulting firms for the chance at a much higher salary. Any advice or experience to share?

Ok. Want some advice. I took a PgM role at a cool start up a few months back. Role is goodish (40-45 hours) and comp is decent for the hours worked. I’m struggling trying to figure out where I go after this because post IPO or buy out this role will very quickly lose value within the company and I’d likely be part of a RIF. So want to know how someone could spin a PgM role to get back into consulting say within 18months of leaving?
