Can anyone give me a legit salary range? Sr. Cons, fed practice, 3.5 years experience, financial modeling/cost analysis/data analytics (SoCal)...how much should I be making? Glassdoor isn't reliable

OP, remember that location also matters. Their salaries are going to be fairly comparable for similar exp and practice area, but if you're comparing San Diego salaries to DC, you'll definitely see a discrepancy.

Not at BAH. Our SC range caps around 90. You need to hit Assoc for that kind of range and 3.5 yrs is going to be hard to justify that target.

OP, I gave you commercial range. Fed might be about 10% lower.

Those seem a bit high to me. I would say 90-100

I'm a senior consultant at booz and make around 85. Have a feeling that's in the middle to high end of the range. Work in dc.

like

$100-$110k

I'd say 115-120 base and a bonus of 10%

^ that sounds right actually. I estimated a bit lower

What BAH 1 said. SC is one level above our entry level. Most make $65k - $80k.

Gotchya. Thanks for the input guys. I'm within the range that bah2 mentioned (lower end). I feel like I'm free labor compared to others in fed at ACN/PwC/Del

Their levels have different titles from what I can tell.

The range from @BAH2 is the same for Deloitte Advisory for the same years of experience. Don't feel so bad.

Thanks for the info guys!

Dear All Fisbowls,

I have a query. Request all of yours suggestion and if you have done something similar to this please share.

You have resigned and have offer in hand suppose 15 fixed.
Meanwhile you get another offer but they will give around 17 fixed.
I am thinking to quote my in hand offer as 17 fixed with changes in it and share it with them.
So that they can give me around 20 fixed.
Request to share honest detail here.

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?

I just spoke with a software architect that went back to school to learn software engineering after law school because it was more lucrative and had less hours. He’s worked his way up and has the skills and authority to work 6:30am-10am and gets to work remotely. We discussed that results/outputs is better than billable time like in law and public accounting. Yet, his parents and others would view him as “lazy” but he does his job and makes a fantastic living. Time>Money and Results>Hours
