1.5 YOE and most offers I’m getting are around 95-100k TC. Can I do better or is this the market rate?

That’s what I got

But also sticking to consulting so makes sense

Location?

Idk how people do city tiers here but assuming NYC/SF is tier 1, I’m in a tier 2 city.

Ya anywhere from 90-120k depending on your skill set is great for 1 YOE. Usually higher COL or tech skillset will net you the higher end.

What skillet do you have?

Thank you! Best of luck in your search! Imo, that’s an excellent salary 1.5 years out of school, I might just be underpaid though 😓

Market rate

For tier 2 city it's what industry pays

Can you break this down to base and bonus?

Gotcha...I personally think you should switch if A) the new job seems much more exciting or B) comp is at least 20% more, ideally 30%+ or C) promotional timeline at current firm is not worth waiting for.

Is anyone at a job they really, truly enjoy that also pays competitively (and has good benefits)? In my experience, I haven’t found anything that satisfies both.

Maybe it’s just the way this industry is?

For context, I am the only non-parter on the investment team so there is no one else to compare myself to.
