Curious what’s the comp band for L5 and L6 these days in VHCOL. My current TC is mid 300s (7.5 YoE + MBA), not sure if L5 would be a paycut, or if I would qualify for L6

If you're an EM then possible to get L6, but L5 more likely. Probably low 300s max for L5

Depends on the role. L5 PMs can make 400k+ TC

Non tech (S&O)

Think it caps out at mid 300s but when you come in they won’t give you the cap so maybe slight pay cut if L5.

You should try to apply and see what the response is. To be transparent, when a L4 Google S&O role was posted at BCG, there were C2 with 6+ YoE being told they needed better referrals

I’m L6 in HCOL making $390k. VHCOL is 10% higher. Your YOE will probably be tough for L6 but maybe possible if you’re lucky. What level are you at McK?

If left as asc then no chance for L6 - I know APs at McK that apply as L6 in this environment. Need to aim for L5
