You reject the offer and say you're not willing to move for less than £40k

Then you wait

EZ

You might lose the offer, so just be honest about what your minimum salary ask is.

I always say my current is +10% than what it is, then say I’d consider moving for a further +10%.

TC by age:
22 - 34k
23 - 45k (to ACN)
24 - 50k
25 - 58k (promo’d) > 72k exit

Yes.

My point is more that you're not actually underpaid. All Big 4 have the same ranges (more or less).

Although the subject matter is the same, the reality of working in consulting Vs industry is different. Especially as you get more senior. Hence why the pay scales shouldn't be compared.

That’s low for PA, someone posted the pay bands on here

Which company would you join?

I currently work in Sales with the intention of moving over to marketing in the near future. I received two offers for BDR/SDR roles from
Sprout Social and Gong. Both salaries are around the same (Gong - base 63k + anticipated $25k in commission, Sprout - 55k base + anticipated $25k in commission).

I like both companies’ software and it extremely hard to decide which position will get me into marketing faster as it is not a traditional BDR path to take.

Help!
