Did anyone actually start off in Consulting earning over $85,000? I keep hearing an entry level salary for Consulting is $70,000 to $100,000. Where?

I signed at Deloitte at $85K as an “experienced hire” in 2019. Business Technology Analyst Role - Texas

i started off at 50k 18yrs (ish) ago

Not even T2 here and out out of undergrad hires are above $85k in base. Depending on how the year goes, they can go above your range in TC. Consulting is a very broad field with many types of work though.

Started off at B4 in 2011 at $92K.

COL matters.

74k in 2019

Hard question without firm type / role / year

When I started in 2015 salary target UG school was 65k-75k depending on - strategy / tech / human capital - profile hire

10 yrs later its $90k for target school strategy hire (~2% increase YoY)

78K + 10K singing at PwC in 2021.

$55K in 2006

~120k-130k TC at MBB

Started at 82k in NYC 2015 (Accenture)
Also had an offer that year for 75k at Deloitte in Austin

We start 95K + 10% in HCOL

Deloitte - sibling got 85k + sign on bonus this year

Chicago, 2021 start at a smaller tech consulting firm was 70,000 for me, that was 5 years ago now so I’m guessing higher starting salaries today

Tech consulting at PwC starts at $90k base entry level in HCOL city.

68k 2022

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.
