BCG Platinion software engineer folks: I just received an offer for a software engineer role in BCG Platinion Chicago with TC 145k-155k (details finalizing) with 2.5 YoE in a fintech company. My main concern is, the base is 120-130k and the expected bonus seems to be ~17% (25k bonus /145k TC), which seems a bit higher than usual. Is this normal or is it a red flag?

Not a red flag. Consulting has good bonusing.

I’d clarify the bonus range, there is probably a target (ie, what to expect, especially first year) and then maximum. I’d guess 15-30% is the range for this.

Thank you! Do you know if this is the expected range or should I negotiate?

The range is not likely to be negotiable, it is based on role (eg, 15-30 at this role, maybe 20-40 at next, etc). But base would be negotiable within the band for the role.

I work at a large, global software company, and am looking to make a move to a more collaborative environment with better culture. I’ve been offered a more senior position at a smaller North American company in the crypto space where I know I will learn a lot, but I’m worried it might hurt my overall career trajectory. Eventually I plan on moving internationally. When it comes to searching for a new position, does company size/reputation matter more than the experience you have at the company?
