Huge congrats! Bain doesn’t negotiate

Congrats! Well, if you are experienced hire, I guess there’s a discussion to be had with regards to what level/band you enter into (I.e AC/SAC/C1…). This impacts your comp (or time to raise). Otherwise no.

Nope

Nope

What’s the role? General consulting no, but speciality function/engine 2 etc does have room to negotiate.

Okay that’s what I figured. It is consulting staff, and level seems fair. Is signing bonus also non-negotiable?

Not technically true, I’ve seen signing bonus negotiated. Not for AC level experienced hires, but SAC and above

You all were correct. Absolutely no negotiation on comp, including signing bonus. Even at the experienced consultant level

A HR question I really want to understand. ISRS HR quoted a podcast "The not so great resignation" saying 70% regret leaving and many want to go back to old employer. If this really the case the employee likely left due to higher pay at the new company. If they want to boomerang back they will likely come back at even a higher rate than they left the new company for. So getting double raise when they boomeranged. Isn't it unbeneficial, why not just give employee a 7% raise in the first place?

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?
