Has anyone ever experienced (or heard of others experiencing) a decrease in total compensation year over year while working at the same company?
I know things have been tough this year but I wasn’t expecting to make less on a nominal basis (but maybe my expectations were off)

I know I’m asking about others’ experience but a little of my specifics here: I work at a strategy consulting firm, my performance ratings improved year over year and I received a promotion part way through the year.

Yes, I did TC went down 10% due to firm decreasing bonus

Elaborate. What portion came down?

So you are complaining your bonus was lower during a down year for the company?

Yeah it happens, more in roles where your bonus is a large portion of TC.

I got a call from KPMG HR for the role of Associate consultant in research team, When she asked me about the expected ctc, I think I quoted less than the market standards but since I am underpaid currently so the amount I quoted was 40-45% hike on my fixed. I have experience of 2.9years
Can anybody please suggest if I clear their interviews will they consider increasing CTC from whatever I quoted becase upon searching for ACon roles they pay much higher than what I quoted.
