Considering a job that’s a perfect match for me, in an industry I’ve been trying to get into for years. Base pay would only be a 5% bump, bonus could be 5-15% more. But… I’d have to commute 3.5 hours (7 round trip) once a week 😒

Commit 3.5 hours of what

Commute

Can you move closer within 3-6 months? That’s an insane and unsustainable commute

See above! I have other reasons for signing in the area I did so it’s a little complicated

It’s really not any different that flying in consulting to client site and back each week? I’ve done ATL to Nash for current client and it’s not that bad.

No thanks, not for that little a bump. I work remote and you could give me a large increase to go into the office and I’d most likely turn it down. Commuting sucks no thanks.

Is Operations paid the least at your respective firms? I was hired to a Client Service Delivery role with a heavy focus on project management. I regularly interface with leadership internally and at the client. But, I am aligned to the “Operations” capability and make the least of my teammates who perform seemingly identical work but are aligned to “Strategy and Consulting.” I worry I’m on a career path to being paid the least wherever I go, because Operations is in my title and background.
