Uhh this is about experienced hire signing bonus though which is absolutely negotiable.

Agree with BCG1; merit based discussion won’t move the needle on pay. Only things like foregone bonuses

What’s your base and expected bonus?

Ask. But rationale has to be one to make you whole - e.g., you are foregoing a bonus you expect at the end of the year and it’s greater than 10K etc.

If you have a competitive offer you’ll get a bigger signing bonus. Otherwise no.

What is the maximum bonus for bcg senior associate level?

@OP, were you successful?

I’m in a similar position & sent over a negotiation email on Monday regarding a higher signing bonus. I followed up with the recruiter but still haven’t heard anything. Was it a bad move to try & negotiate via email? I made sure it was friendly & polite but I’m getting nervous by the silence.

Did you ever hear back? What was the verdict?

What was that process like? Would my process start from the interview phase? How did you prove that the next job was in the same category? Please mention if you did the process before or during the pandemic. Thanks so much.
