Did you/can you negotiate comp for experienced entry level consulting roles? Have consulting experience from non-MBB firm, but was hired for the entry role.

You can try to negotiate level/tenure credit eg coming in as a C2 vs C1 or SA vs A.

You can try to negotiate signing bonus.

You cannot negotiate comp package for a given level ie the C1 package is the C1 package, no variation.

Negotiating level is a double edged sword. Sure you get a bit more comp for C2 vs C1, but expectations will be higher, runway will be shorter, and it will be a bit harder to get staffed.

Mostly, the range in which you can negotiate is pretty small and probably doesn’t matter given how steep the compensation trajectory is. Comp doubles after 2 years (from u/g entry level) and doubles 2 more times in 8 years after that (so 100-200-400-800, over first 10 years).

Pay at given level. If I had known level I would have for sure negotiated. They bring in everyone below where they should be in terms of level because ‘it’s McKinsey’. I went from a director level with multiple reports and my own book to an associate which was in no way made clear to me. It was tough. Definitely negotiate your level in addition to comp to be sure you’re comfortable moving. That all being said I still don’t regret joining...

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
