At ZS what does Business Technology Consultant do in terms of difference from SIP Consultant? My background, Manager in Lighthouse (data science) with current base 158k. ZS offer is Consultant with 170k plus 14k COLA and 15k signing plus 15k relocation from Denver to NY. Is there any possibility to not relocate and be remote? Principal said he forsees about 1.5-2.5 years to Manager, is that usually accurate?

Congrats on the offer! That offer is excellent for a C at ZS. I'm actually super surprised to see the COLA is still that high at the base salary you were offered.

I'd put your likelihood at being permitted to be remote at <5%. Remote arrangements below manager level are very rare. You need to come in, build your network, establish credibility, etc.

In terms of promotion, if you're coming in as an experienced C which it sounds like you are based on salary, that range is reasonable. If you were coming in as a fresh C, I'd peg the range at 2.5-3 years to Manager promo.

They make exceptions starting at the manager level. The reason for insistence is just being close the client. We have a local model so we don’t do mon - thu travel so don’t really charge or account weekly flights to clients in our model. Have a chat with the P and see if there are clients who are close enough. We tend to open offices near clients. Either way, even if it’s an interesting role but client facing, it may require you to have more travel which could take away from quality of life so it’s not a perfect solution. I have found ZS tries to be very accommodating but it’s def a case by case situation! Good luck!

Damn. I got 165k 😢

I was offered $140k before I negotiated 2 years ago. Damn. $170k is what I make now right before promo to M.

Yea! Hold this P accountable to make sure you don’t fall in the trap of average progression wohoo is 2.5 - 3 yrs

I accepted it without negotiating as I did not want to lose the opportunity, I am extremely underpaid and I have been doing the job of 3 people, as my company keeps firing folks.

Not sure who else in the company is involved/aware - he's my only point of contact. I'm 6 mths into the job and enjoy it, but this is a major red flag.
