No, I don't think you can negotiate PTO. However, maybe you could negotiate to Associate (Associates get an extra 5 days). You could also negotiate for a higher salary equivalent to purchasing 5 days of PTO.

They won’t just hand you associate, they rather keep you at sc as long as humanly possible and act like our associates do something that we cannot. When in reality the line between associate and sc is negligible at best in terms of what they actually do. But they will not just give you associate and watch them drag out the process saying ‘have more conversations’ with leadership while ‘delivery’ is not ‘everything’

If you decide to buy PTO, beware that you have to use it or lose it earlier in the year than you’d expect! I believe before October? Not sure on the deadline…. So don’t assume you’re buying PTO for the holidays.

Can someone help answer below. Looking at a couple roles myself:
- what is the equivalent title to a manager at Big 4 with 8 years of experience
- how does PTO change at different levels

Booz Allen has no separate sick leave. We used to, but they decided to increase PTO for everyone and eliminate the sick leave allotment.

I’m wondering if not paying bonuses is common to federal contracting because of how the contracts or priced, or if this is something unique to Booz Allen.
