After 15+ years running my own marketing consultancy, I’m transitioning to a large professional services firm. This opportunity—created specifically to leverage my expertise in writing, messaging, and strategic positioning—arose through networking and the firm’s need for senior-level talent.
Given my limited experience with corporate salary structures, I’m seeking insights on a salary range for a senior marketing leader in Chicago. Any perspective is appreciated.

Need to also look at the total comp and package. Is there bonus, any equity, sign on bonus to walk away from guaranteed income etc.

One starting point is to use your hourly rate now to see what your salary would be if annualized. You would most likely get a prorated portion of that given they your now w2, they need to account for benefits and the overhead that comes with you etc.

I'm a first yr attorney at an insurance firm and am in the process of interviewing for an in-house position at a tech company. The position is pretty much generalist, but I get the impression I'd be working mostly on SaaS and partnership transactions. I definitely think I would like the transactional work better, but I am concerned about the long-term earning potential vs. partnership. How common is it to eventually make $350k+ in-house/how difficult is it to transition back to a firm? Thanks!
