Currently an associate doing consulting and analytics with 2 YOE in the credit card and payments industry making 74k. I am getting a promotion with a small salary increase by the end of the month.

Is it worth leaving to do something more interesting if I have an offer for ~85k working in payments innovation for a recent IPO company? (Albertsons)

Am I getting undercut? Is it worth the move? What salary should I be looking at?

Sounds suspiciously like capco. The answer is yes to all of the above. 2 yoe, I’d ask for minimum of 90. If you’re leaving before a bonus use that to negotiate a higher base, push for 90-95, or see if you can get a signing bonus/equity.

Yeah I was thinking 85 seems low. Currently not at Capco though

No idea about this industry in general but if it’s very specific knowledge, 85k seems low for 2 yoe unless LCOL or substantial equity involved

C1, I got an offer to join a T2 firm (better than D) with standard salary (better than D) with 2YOE in SF, not very close to 110-120k though.

You'll get shafted on salary. Leave on good terms and bounce back later at a more appropriate salary level, if you want.

That's way too low. I'm 2 YOE and in analytics too. I went from 80k to 130k in my exit. And I didn't even have industry specific knowledge. I'd say only jump for atleast a 30% increase.

Nah, in advisory but bounced after SA promo

Very low for 2YOE. My base from Accenture out of UG was higher than where you’re at now.

Hi all
I started out as a graphic designer. Worked for about 4yrs in different roles. Then i started a digital design role for 2 yrs and then made my transition into ux. i have been in a ux role for 5 years. But i want to steer my career towards something more creative. Like in 5-10 years I wouldn’t want to be a specialist or a ux director. I d like to be an art director or creative director. I love branding & marketing but also product. Would love something that allows me to do both?

Fish who have been feds,

I have been stuck deciding between two offers (both in IC, but one is more program analysis -similar to consulting work but on the fed side, and actual analysis).

The program analysis offer is at a higher GS level and a more well known agency, but is not what I’m interested in.

Does anyone have any advice on how to make a decision? Go with what I want to do, or go with the more well known agency and higher gs?
