Switch or stay???
Currently in EY business risk consulting at C2 Level, expecting a promotion to SC in Oct. Current fixed-10.64 plus 20% variable. Have received an offer from KPMG india GRCS for 17 fixed + 15% variable and 1 lac joining bonus at SC2 level. Should I stay or leave if EY matches or offers 15-16 fixed (considering I will lose the year end bonus in EY if I quit now). Also please share if you have any insight on KPMG GRCS team in Bengaluru.

Base salary is always better than variable. KPMG is offering you 1 lac joining as well which is slightly less than the bonus you will probably get. If ey offers 16 fixed, then maybe you can consider staying but for 15 I think you should consider KPMG, unless other factors like WLB, career growth, etc. are better at ey.

How were you able to negotiate a steep hike?

Neither EY will match nor EY will take your salary to 17 fixed in 2 years. Switch looks better here

You must definitely leave EY and choose KPMG

If you are getting SC 2, you get the benefit of skipping one designation I.e. SC 1, is that a correct assessment?
Also EY will pay less than 17 (fixed) at SC 2.
