Not big 4 but same tier. Having said that I've heard of big 4 consulting paying managers that range though, although it would be on the high end of the bracket. Big 4 audit then no way (but you reach manager much faster in audit)

Haha ya something like that... yea maybe you're right on the external hire into big 4 part. Having said that what's the range for big 4 consulting for M / SM? I've heard of managers in big 4 consulting drawing 15k but I've also heard of senior consultants (one rank below) drawing over 20k so it's really peculiar...

Eh gosh that's really lower than I thought. I think your external hire theory is correct probably.

Having said that the 15k M was Deloitte consulting and I think maybe the reason is that Deloitte goes Analyst - Consultant - Senior Consultant - Manager - SM, while the others might go A - C - M - SM, so the M in Deloitte might be higher than the M in the other 3. Not sure if this makes sense or not.

yea thats true.

M - RM9k starting
SM - RM13k starting

this is for consulting or audit then actually? I was under the impression that consulting was a bit higher than that and audit was a bit lower than that so can't be sure...
