I have been approached by a recruiter to join EY as a Consulting Manager. Should I be worried about the possible split?
I'm now in industry but a bit bored, would you consider go back to consulting for a 15% base salary increase?

Any recruiters on here? Have 2 questions regarding job offer negotiations and retention salary increase. 1a. When you offer a candidate a salary, do you usually start low or average side? 1b. How much room can be negotiated? 2. When someone has a job offer elsewhere, how do make a retention offer/match the outside offer?

Fishies. How do you inform the recruiter and hiring manager that you are no longer aligned with salary expectations ? We’ve been going back and forward and after taking some time off and thinking about it, I am not interested in the salary they are offering. Most importantly that I do not want to burn any bridges especially the director of that department is my friend sister. The position is in industry and not consulting. TIA

Anyone feel the need to alert the greater world about a terribly toxic workplace? I’ll go first - all fish here should avoid working for Marsh Advisory (specifically strategic risk and emerging risk consulting). Culture is awful, management is hypocritical abusive bullies, project delivery is always fumbled and the responsibility falls onto junior staff, no growth potential, and bad comp. You’d be better off working in a real consulting firm.

Older folks who are motivated to keep climbing the ladder- what drives you? For reference, a 45 year old ex consultant in industry. Doing decently well on level and happy with compensation. Want to maximize time with kids and wife and learn new languages, play golf etc. if noting, just sit in the backyard with a drink and relax. More so than the increase in money or level. Feel I could have pushed myself more but do what is needed but definitely not what it used to be 10 years ago.

Really curious: Does anyone know what’s the history behind the huge gap between Big 4 jobs in the US and in Europe? While it seems it’s a prestigious job with good pay in the US, over here in Europe their bar for hiring is rather low and the pay is really uncompetitive (not speaking of the strategy arms like EYP or Strategy&)
Edit: I am not comparing US salary to Europe but comparing the two jobs within the county/continent with other alternatives of the candidates + the reputation
