No idea on signing. Don't forget healthcare is 99% free (no premium, no deductible, $5 copay), retirement is 5% of base and bonus for As, and bonuses are 15-30% for As. Can't imagine you're taking much of a step back.

Pay at BCG is standardized per band in a region. Whatever band you map to, is what you'll be paid, non negotiable.

If you're pre MBA, you'll be an Associate. Otherwise Consultant or higher.

Thanks guys! Really appreciate all of the insight! Final q, are signing bonuses a thing for experienced hires? If so, ballpark number?

We don’t look at your salary history to determine your base - our salary is standardized across the US. Every first year consultant gets the same base. So does every second year associate etc.
if your current base is higher than the base of the level you would come in, we often account for that with a sign-on bonus

BCG has set pay for each level. For the consulting group at least.

Do you know what the SA band is? I figure I’d map closest to that level

Do it

Yeah I know it’s an investment. I just live in a high COL city so this affects a lot of day to day. I appreciate all of the feedback! I heard Associate is about $84, does that sound right?

Yes that’s right for associate base

Associate is 80-85k depending on tenure and when you started! So 84 sounds right

6, that helps a lot. I’m making a rate equivalent to SA right now. So going down to A would be a bit of a cut. I do know that the BCG bonus’s would blow Accenture’s out of the water

BCGers. If I have 2 years of experiences pre-MBA and want to join BCG. Will I join as 1st year associate or second year associate? Will my salary base be in the same 80K -85K range?

Likely yes

I recently joined Swiss Re at 30lpa, pretty good manager and work culture. Got a hike of 10% in 3 months without me asking for it. But got an offer from another company which I was interviewing for before joining here and they are offering a base of 45lpa. Now I am unsure how I convey this to my manager coz I want to stay here but at the same time I am salivating over this new offer and wish I get similar numbers here. Is it worth raising a discussion? If yes what would be a subtle way to do so?

2. Is there any hidden component which may deduct from my salary?
3. How variable pay will be paid? monthly or quarterly or annually?
4. How much variable pay we will get by Average?
