What kind of consumer goods company? Seems low? I have friends that went into rotation programs in industry straight out of bschool that were making close to 150k base.

You can DM me. I left consulting to go to industry as manager in Retail/CPG. Your offer sadly isn’t super low for F500.

2 years at BCG after an MBA - I’m sure you’re around at least 220k all in? doesn’t sound right - unless you’re in Europe?

Are you in the US? If yes that number seems wildly off base if you are 2 years post mba at BCG in a client facing management consulting role.

Salary is low, but you will have wlb. I came from Industry and used to work less than 5 hours daily.

Hi guys, I have got one full time job for 14LPA from 10.5LPA in Coforge for BA role. On the other hand, I have one more offer for Canada and the job is on 2 years contract basis with 80k CAD per annum where I have to sign 2 years agreement as well that I can’t back out once I get the offer. I was interested to go CA but scared in terms of job security, economic slowdown and a big change. Is it worth going to CA on contract basis job declining the full time opportunity in India.

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
