I got $5k sign on but I negotiated my base hardcore and got a 50% bump up from where I was at Booz. $80k to $120k base.

likeuplifting

Jumped from SC at Booz to SC at Deloitte Consulting (so technically a promotion). Jumped to Strategy & Ops GPS

Came from Booz, 15k, around a 50% bump in salary as well

like

I was including a modest bonus on top of that, no bonuses at Booz, so even a 5-7% bonus here would be around 10% of my Booz salary...

Undergrads get 8+ I believe

Would 10 -15 k be too much to ask for, if coming from a different firm with some experience?

I negotiated more base. 5k bonus with clawback provision of 2 years (half each year).

Rising 2nd year at corporate boutique. Major market. 170k base, variable monthly est. 20k, EOY subjective bonus. Big law = 200+25 I think. Is the range I am in competitive? Billed 2500+ last year.

Considering an exit to a startup that just completed a solid series B. They’re willing to provide competitive comp package and surprised how large the base is for a startup. Has me concerned about being on the high end and being the first person that comes to mind when it’s time to pinch a few pennies or clean up the books ahead of future rounds/IPO. Valid concern or am I overthinking it?
