Which social stratum has the highest salary?

Taking salary as the first consideration, development prospect as the second consideration, and social status and fame as supplementary considerations, it is roughly like this:

1, foreign investment bank

In particular, it refers to first-class overseas investment banks such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup Global Investment Bank, Lehman Brothers, Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse First Boston and ubs warburg, all of which have representative offices or branches in China. Generally, each company recruits 5- 10 people in Chinese mainland every year, and only 1-2 people when they were young. Graduates recruited by domestic investment banks work in different places, such as Tokyo, Hongkong, Singapore, Beijing and Shanghai, among which Tokyo has the highest salary and Chinese mainland has a lower salary. After working in any first-class investment bank for three years, applying to the top business schools in the United States is almost certain to succeed, and the future after MBA graduation is limitless.

2. Foreign consulting companies

In particular, McKinsey, Bain, Boston Consulting Group, Morit Group, Mercer, Eisenzhe and other overseas first-class consulting companies can be divided into management consulting, investment consulting, human resources consulting, market consulting, technical consulting and other sectors. The recruitment of consulting companies is slightly higher than that of investment banks, with an average of 10-30 people per company per year. There are slightly fewer companies such as McKinsey and more companies such as Mercer. Last year, due to the expansion of foreign consulting business, the number of recruits generally increased. The salary gap of consulting companies is relatively large, but you can get a big salary increase after working for 3-5 years, and the salary of senior consultants is not less than that of investment bankers. Applying to the top business schools in the United States in consulting companies is basically successful, and the future is broader after MBA graduation.

3. Joint venture or Chinese investment bank

Including CICC and Gaohua Securities, BOC International is barely one. In fact, CICC is equivalent to Morgan Stanley's China branch, and its salary is extremely high, but it has declined in recent years. Gao Hua is equivalent to the China branch of Goldman Sachs. Just established for more than a year, the future is unknown. Wages can refer to foreign investment banks, which are generally slightly lower.

4. Some large foreign companies have high employee benefits.

These positions are scattered, but most of them are concentrated in marketing, strategic planning, financial management and other departments. It is recognized that foreign companies with high pay and bright future include Procter & Gamble, Mars, Maersk, Daimler-Chrysler and the finance department of General Motors. Its salary is not as high as that of investment banks and consulting companies, but its benefits to personal cultivation and future diversity are far greater than those of investment banks and consulting companies, which is very beneficial to future business work. The work intensity of the above-mentioned foreign enterprises is generally much lower than that of investment banks, with many training opportunities and high cost performance.

5. Foreign commercial banks or universal banks

For example, ABN Bank of America, Societe Generale, HSBC, Standard Chartered Bank and Buckley Bank. The gap between their investment banks and commercial banks is not big, but the wages of various departments are also different. Corporate finance (equivalent to investment banking), private banking and other high-paying jobs are often much higher than general consumer banking and insurance. In any case, these foreign universal banks give people more comprehensive training than investment banks, and the probability of switching between departments is greater, so the future may not be as good as investment banks or consulting companies.

6. Four major accounting firms

Namely Deloitte, PricewaterhouseCoopers, KPMG and Ernst & Young. Their salary is not high, which may not be worth it compared with the complicated workload, but they have a good reputation. After working for 3-5 years, there is great hope of going abroad to study business school or transferring to other foreign companies, so it is called "talent springboard". The Big Four has two positions: auditing and consulting. However, after the audit scandal in 2002, most of the consulting business was stripped out, and it is difficult to get consulting positions at present. However, even if you are engaged in general audit work in the Big Four, there are many opportunities to learn and practice business consulting. It is worth noting that the Big Four does not encourage employees to go to business school earlier, so it may be hindered in this respect.
