Hey peeps!

First year consultant, in the Human Capital offering. I feel like my current employer is underpaying me at 110k base (14% bonus) - I have a masters, multiple WD certifications, and will be pursuing my MBA in a few short months.

Curious what other HR/HC Consultants make at other firms?

Your comp is fair based on your YOE and the fact you’re an entry level consultant.

Not an assumption by any means, just curious other consultants experiences at their firms for continuing education.

Underpaid if 4 YOE
Overpaid if 2 YOE

*Consulting YOE, industry would be closer to 5/3

For a first year, that’s pretty good

3 years industry experience prior to consulting. Worked in tech and staffing sectors

That’s quite high for a first year consultant. From my experience, the range is closer to $70-$95k. It’s also worth noting that some firms do not care about a masters degree, unless you are talking about a top tier MBA. In the case of the latter, you often still need to join through campus recruiting to receive the top tier mba compensation. I’m curious to hear what others think.

Question, when you know you made it to the final round and have had nothing but glowing feedback from the interviewers. How long do you expect to wait for an offer, rejection, follow up? This is a mid-senior management position which I am well qualified for. I am just new to the tech space.

Side note, we talked compensation and start date already.

Over the last three years my mfg company has had a lot of people leave and each time I take on the extra responsibility - from admin, payroll, benefits, compliance, safety, inventory and shipping. I literally do it all. And not only that, but I’ve eliminated and optimized a lot of wasteful processes in order to get it all done. I thought that it would all come with eventual pay increases since it saves the company over 300k in overhead. This whole time I should have been OE. I feel like a fool.
