Lots to unpack here. Many clients know many things and are true experts in their fields. But they might not know what you might know - consulting skills. And it IS your job to build their skills. So why are you upset for doing your job?
Don't think too much. Lot of things would change in 10 to 15 years so just be patient and try to learn as much as possible.
What’s your current comp/city? That can help us gauge. But to address your question - less than 3 years of experience is still very entry level so it’s no surprise that people are making 8x and most likely even more than that. If others with your exp and similar skill set are making 8x more than you, that’s when I would look into moving companies. If you always compare to people way ahead of your years then you’re always going to be upset no matter how much “smarter” you think you are compared to them. Experience is important not just skill wise, but learning how to navigate business, etc.
R$ 60.000 in Sampa is low, even for entry level - especially given cost of living. Not 8x low, but low enough that you should be at the R$ 90.000/year
List values.
Ah, okay. I’ll think on it. I’m probably way off, am overthinking this and need to learn more patience. But thank you:)
Welcome to consulting and the working world...this is your job. Also, in consulting, people feel undervalued for the first few years because they overestimate their worth and are coming from a background where they were a high performer in college. It’s normal to have to do grunt work the first 4-5 years after college. You can’t compare yourself to your clients as they have industry specific experience which you don’t have.
What I make and I’m in a role where I’m teaching/training them.
Is this feeling normal? I know experience is a big factor but damn. 8 times is a lot.
Any of you ever felt this way?
What’s your company?
Oh hey! Nice!
I question your role and am curious about what you are teaching/training them. The way you write this makes it sound like your teaching them how to do their job, which seems unrealistic given your 2 years of experience.
