Hmm, these numbers are surprising. I’m at 140k for 1,800 second year, which seems very reasonable. I started at 120k for 1,700.

It’s basically 20k for 100 billables. So theoretically, if I wanted to bill 2,100 and have no life, I would be at 200k, which is right on par with a lot of the raises we are seeing recently.
