BCG principal salary according to Glassdoor is $318K (base + bonus + profit sharing) in the US. Is this in the ballpark?

Within normal range. Salaries are lock step, I believe base for a P1 is $212K and then bonuses can be up to 30% with 5% more for profit sharing. Principal at BCG is their SM/D level, not a partner.

I think 30% is target bonus (ie, expected if you are in good standing), with 60% as the highest bonus possible (which few get). Think profit sharing is also 10%

like

Yes?

Bonus % varies by tenure, but it sounds like the right ballpark. Would expect a trajectory upward from P1 to P4

I doubt that. In Glassdoor - Samples you see for Bonus are different samples for PS. Also, if you analyze - some people have considered bonus as profit sharing, so essentially they seem to be same on the Glassdoor.

What I believe is 200-300 is Base. Most Bonus or PS is approx 50% of the base - means the range should be 30%-60% as one grows from P1 - P4.

Thanks for the info BCG1

318 would be low end for P1. High end is much higher

30% is only the target bonus. Actual bonus can go as high as 60% and on average ppl can expect 45%.

@P1– false, median is definitely 30%. There are brackets below 30% as well.

PS EY1 is pretty much on the money with their base number

Out of curiosity how does PL2 comp look?
