Accepted an offer from Accenture, Strategy Manager role: 200K base, 25K bonus opp, 20K sign on bonus, T1 city.
I have ~9 yoe, not in Strategy consulting. Based on what I read so far, the above seemed a good offer. So I said yes

What works in negotiating sign on bonuses with KPMG for M1 and how is this negotiated? Is the sign on bonus just included in the initial offer as a standard and then you negotiate up from there or is it something that you’ve asked for prior to the interview/offer?

What do they use to determine your sign on amount? Are they under the impression you are interviewing with multiple competitors or do you throw out a base and sign on bonus amount during preliminary discussions?

What location? I’m going to Chicago soon.

Yeah, I was just asking in general.

That seems right I accepted / signed my offer @ $190K base, $50K sign on but curious how you calculate or estimate your $25K bonus opp? My understanding is Accenture bonuses range between 10-12%, but that actual bonuses are closer to the 3-5%, is that right?

I tried to negotiate both but only the sign on was increased which was fine with me

sigh* last week Saturday my s/o & I broke up after our 3 year relationship. & it really been affecting me negatively — not eating, autopilot mode, self isolation & diving deep into work. Today I decided to go outside, where I picked up some food to go and went to an outdoor movie by myself; where I had the realization I just really enjoy being by myself. Idk, maybe I’m just better off single after so many failed relationships/am I being dramatic? but anyone else has given up on love?
