Client Strategy
Pros: Good benefits, great teams. Ability to make connections with senior partners within the firm.
Cons: The company treats internal firms services (IFS) as the step-child of the firm. In this role we drive revenue and sales strategy for accounts, but they do not support IFS in career progression. Furthermore, you can be a top performer at your level, but even if your salary is below average the most they can do for you in a good year is a 3% raise and mediocre bonuses - even if they give client service staff across the board salary increases and bigger bonuses. Needless to say it's worse in years of lower firm performance. Even if you do manage to get a promotion, they will only offer a 6% pay increase or get you to within ~80% of the lowest paid employee at that level. Meanwhile if you have to fill a role from outside all of a sudden there is extra salary available despite the fact there are additional on boarding and recruiting costs more to hire from outside rather than promoting form within.
