Federal folks, what are senior consultants making these days?

I am in financial management making 117k. I have a BA and 7 years work experience with 3 years in consulting, sitting for PMP exam soon. Wondering if I should jump to senior consultant at another firm, or stay and try to make managing consultant (not sure the salary).

I just don't understand why people would do PMP. Federal Gvmt is all moving to Agile.

Is it common to offer signing bonuses for product managers? I've only worked in small companies and I'm currently interviewing at a much larger company. I am expecting an offer this week, but the salary isn't quite where I want it to be. A signing bonus of 5 or 10k would make me feel so much better (obviously) but it would put me right where I want to be for salary this year. I'm taking a cut in salary to consider this new job but I like the company and they actually offer benefits
