Hi all - I wanted to ask an odd question. I received an offer from a consulting firm for $120k as a senior consultant in Dallas. I have 5YOE all in data and analytics and this move would represent a large bump in my salary. My concern is that looking at the posts here it seems like the norm is $150k. Am I being low balled?

I don't know what firm but I got 165k base at Deloitte for a SC role in their Strategy and Analytics practice, with 15k joining bonus.
120 seems low to me I think for base, unless you get 20-25k signing bonus.

If its a meaningful bump, take it. What others make is immaterial.

A1 thanks for the reply, that is what I wanted to know. Sometimes you just don’t know if you are being paid less so it is great to hear.

I am excited to join Accenture AI and maybe we might be working together on something one day.

Definitely not low, that’s good for Dallas standard. C
Numbers on here are toxic in general, don’t worry much about it.

What do you mean by “toxic”?
