Deloitte 🐠, I’m applying for a Consultant role in a mid/low CoL city and the recruiter asked me to set an expectation of base salary.

Can you help me pinpoint what would be high/low for the C level?

If you say 115 you will be laughed at. Even HCOL experienced hire Cs don’t get paid that. Aim for 105. That’s aggressive but start high

like

There are certainly some exp hire C’s at 110-120, all depends on the market. I just gave a huge range because the post is super vague

like

I also got 105 after asking 85-90. Consensus is I got lucky since i lowballed myself.

I got 125K, know others that were offered 135. COL was irrelevant in my negotiations.

Thank you all for your input! I’ll follow the advice of aiming for 105 and going from there

Hey Fishes,

2. They've started mentioning Bonus, Gratuity amount etc in offer letter
3. Work life balance depends on Project and managers you work with
