Hi, looking for some advice here. I’ve just received a job offer as a senior consultant (remote) at a boutique consulting firm for $115K (will bump up to $120K at the end of the year if I meet the targets for the remaining year). I have 4 yoe and I feel like this is definitely under industry standards, as I’ve heard numbers between 130-150 for senior consultants at other firms. Can anyone validate this range as industry standards and also provide some advice on how to negotiate a higher salary?

Sigh, how can anyone validate when you provide no context of the type of work/position your applying for outside of a generic consulting level.

Pay varies amongst a n number of factors…

Apologies, I’m in the payments/treasury space and working with a fin tech consulting firm at the moment, and I’m working on implementations of a product. The new position will be along the same lines, however it will be more strategy based (big 4-esque consulting style)

You are assuming tech consulting payroll is highly standardized by YOE across firms - well it’s not.

Without any details except you are 4 years in something, 115k for a remote position seems be ok.

Like P1 said, they are hiring for remote position. The flashy number for NYC/SF position has COL baked in already.

$115K for 4 YOE sounds about right.
