Final McKinsey generalist Associate interview coming up. I understand the base is standard across North America but to what extent is the signing bonus negotiable? And/or if the base is negotiable?

You could maybe see how much of a relocation bonus you can get but rest of it is non negotiable

Nothing is negotiable. You are paid on a total comp basis on performance, on a single grid across the US. Bonus is not like B4 - it is there every year, so total comp is constant and real. You will be paid plenty vs wherever else you are. Honestly don’t pay a moments attention to comp. it’s not who we are or how we think. Focus on client impact. And solving problems.

Assuming you're an experienced hire and not a new grad, I'd be surprised if signing bonus was non-negotiable. Definitely never hurts to try. I asked BCG for higher signing and got an extra 15k. Pretty good for a 2min phone call I'd say.

15k extra is really good. McKinsey didn’t move a $ for my signing bonus even as lateral.

I would say reloc and signing are negotiable from what I know - base and bonus not.

Hi folks, I have an offer from one of the well known startups for performance marketing role with almost 50% hike should I consider it or not. My details include 3.5 years of experience in paid media role, currently working as a Sr Executive for Paid Search also my current package is 6.6 Lpa. One of the major reasons for switch is because the current work is corely focused on execution based tasks and very less on strategy and optimisations. #paidmedia#ppc @groupm @dentsu @publicis @accenture
