Yeah, that sounds about right. Depends on how large the company is and how many levels you’ll have above you. If you’re the second in command under CFO then I’d ask for a higher salary. If you’re the third or fourth ranking member on the finance team then that’s reasonable for a mid market company.

Thank you for the insight.

Thank you as well, that was helpful.

Depends on industry. That sounds close if it’s non-tech with RSU/options. Otherwise, on the low end for a director in tech or without stock.

It’s a $400M a year embedded software company. Would you share what one may expect comp. to look like for a Finance Director in tech?

4th year at a mid size PI firm. Got pulled from litigating MVAs to help this solo we hired start a med Mal/nursing home practice. 1 year in and it looks like I’m two steps backwards in terms of getting paid because we’re a year or more out from a lot of the fees hitting. I respect the solo a lot, he’s a mentor, but I’ve got kids and I gotta get paid. Trying not to burn bridges, but I can’t wait years to get cut in. Advice?

Hello fellow SAP Consultants!
I am SAP HCM consultant having 4.10 years of experience. I feel that this module doesn’t have any growth. My first switch took me to 9LPA from 6LPA and now the second switch is being offered for 11.5LPA where I can see my fellow friends in SAP having more than 15LPA at the same experience on their second switch itself. Should I be worried about my skillset? Any insights would highly be appreciated. I feel stuck.
