Exiting after 2 years in the post MBA position. Not promoted to EM. With respect to compensation, what is the best case scenario and the average/median outcome? Understand that it would be role, industry, and geography dependent — just trying to think through range of possibilities and general expectations.

Lol at giving a range of 125-300, then adding ‘+/- 10%’

Highly variable without filtering for industry, location, and position.

I'd say the range would be anywhere from $125-300k, +/- 10%.

Really can't provide any more specifics without more specificity from you.

Recent exit ~3 years post MBA...yes highly variable but would give range of 220-300 all in as average depending on location / function / industry

Here’s a couple data points for you (PhDs in life sci):

210k all-in, SM, SF med tech
300k all-in, Director, NJ pharma

Basically I would expect/try for 200-300k comp, with fringes at 150-350

As far as seniority, anywhere from Manager to Director. In tech terms that could be L4-L5 I would imagine

@BCG1. The PhD was not required but was accepted in lieu of YOE prior to consulting. On the business side my profile was 0 YOE 2.5 years at McKinsey at to post MBA level, then applying for these roles.

A good MSc will give you most of the PhD skills you would need for the pharma roles, which focus on being able to read and synthesize the literature.

Same, I just got promoted but in terms of exits I don’t think it matters since it’s usually YOE. I had 5 years pre mba and 2 post. Keen to hear what others are seeing. I am hearing from recruiters that I am eligible for a more junior role because of low YOE

All fair comments. I’d say for me I’m mainly looking at big tech or series D/E companies. Biz ops / project manager / program manager roles. 6 total YOE

I’ve been offered a position that I’m really excited about. Their initial offer was 10K more than the top of the salary range they gave me for the position when I asked during the interview process and at the top end of the salary requirements I set for myself. My partner thinks I should still negotiate for more even though I’m happy with the offer. Am I an idiot if I don’t negotiate in this case? Realistically, I don’t think I’d get much more than that, but should I negotiate out of principle?
