Got the offer letter!!! I think it has everything I asked for/wanted. Anything else in particular others suggest I look out/negotiate for? No singing bonus so that’s first on my list, what else?

Sending positive vibes ❤️❤️❤️ if it helps it took 2.5 months to get the offer. So be patient and be persistent- you got this!

If there’s no singing, then I would renegotiate to play an instrument like guitar or piano maybe. (Sorry, I couldn’t resist.)

Just make sure salary is in check, start date is in check, your role/title is what it supposed to be. Lastly, it’s not a done deal until you and they sign.

Congrats, OP!

A few quick notes to set your expectations:
- there are only 2 things you can negotiate in a BCG offer letter: a signing bonus, and the tenure you come in at
- I would recommend coming in at a C1 or lower
- signing bonus is likely not going to happen because markets are a bit slow right now and there’s no reason to entice you to join
- signing bonus is usually common only when you’re post MBA or have cross offers from other MBBs

My two cents: hit accept and down that bottle of champagne!

So everything else like benefits is same for all offers at BCG. What are the benefits like in terms of time off, insurance etc. not asking for any specific employee, but just in general

Congrats OP and welcome!

I joined a new consulting firm and have been here for 6 months. Recently, a SaaS client (1k employees) that hired my old consulting firm reached out to me about a job opening - Lead BA working primarily to implement their benefit admin system for insurance companies. My current TC is 95k. Is it worth making the jump if the offer is north of 110k? Anything I should look out for? The client and coworkers were all nice, but I remember being stressed on the project due to limited resources.
