Can I get an honest opinion this offer? I think I'm doing well but wanna check:

1) F100 company

2) 123K total comp tier 3 city (LCOL - Dallas/Houston/Charlotte/Philly)

3) 27, 4YOE, MS degree

Definitely seems like a solid offer relative to YOE and COL

like

I think 120 base would make more sense if those 4 YOE are all on consulting

like

Yeah I have 3 in consulting and 1 in industry.

I think it's a very solid offer, but hopefully that 123k total comp is largely salary and not discretionary bonus

like

its a good offer. for your benefit total comp is 108 since the 15 is a one off

What industry?

Personally think you could push for 115-120 but might be tough given the crazy circumstances we are in

I was offered $130K + $10K signing + $20K target bonus at a F100 company - granted in SF but only 2 years WE... I’d say you can do better

like

I wouldn’t consider Dallas or Houston a Tier 3.

Depends on where you live

Also certainly think you could do better. Offer feels low for 4 yoe. How many years are of consulting experience? Most people break 100k pretty quickly in our field and I’d require at least 20% increase to leave

Hmmmm thanks. For some context I've done 2 years of IT consulting, 1 year industry (career switch), 1 year strategy consulting.

So 3 years total in consulting but came at a cost to switch from IT to strat. Always knew I was underpaid and was hoping this offer would kinda set me straight again.

Hi,
just wanted your suggestions,
I have 4.2yrs of experience with 14.9ctc in same company without switch.
Now as I have taken permanent work from home due to location issue, they are reducing my package by 13%, so from next month CTC will be 13.7,
Currently I have TCS offer of 16.7CTC.
Is it worth going to TCS, as I have heard they dont give much hike, if I stay in current company in 2years I will reach the package TCS is giving me.

I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions here.

Hi Fishes,
I had given interview for network security architect position in Feb last week. And as per recruiter, I got selected for that role. I have been asked to share the documents on March 1st. I did a few followup for the offer letter update and they asked me 2 wait for 2-3 weeks. And now they are saying position has gone on hold after I did another followup.
Could it be because of expected salary ?
