Hi Fishes!

I recently received a verbal offer from PwC to join the Salesforce practice as a Senior Associate in one of the commercial industries/stacks (IT/Retail).

Any idea on target salary and/or how to negotiate compensation?

Details:
~5 YoE
-M.S. (no MBA)
-Location: Tier 2 City (DC)
-No previous Big 4 experience

Thank you in advance!

You don’t. We are on a cohort system. Compensation is not negotiable, you get whatever the comp is for whatever cell on the cohort grid you’re assigned to.

What this means in practice is, what you negotiate is your entry point, not the compensation itself. So if SA1A (the default SA offer point typically) doesn’t work for you, you might ask to come aboard as an SA1C or whatever instead. Details will depend on your service line.

Good to know! Thank you! I have a follow-up with a hiring manager next week. I was unsure of the salary/cohort structure. This helps so much!

Pwc is a cohort and DC is a Tier 2 city. Salary could be between $114k-$132k depending on if they bring you in as a SA1, 2 or 3

Thank you for this background. Very helpful information! I did some research and that sounds roughly accurate. I will follow up to confirm which level.

SA1 rn in tier 2 city is 120k for salesforce practice
