Where r these exit opps?? Recruiters act like they r about to fall out of their chair when I ask for a measly $115k πŸ™„ current salary is $97k at consultant level

I know the feeling. Trust me.

I've come across a few jobs where the pay ranges are vastly differently for similar work. I think the reality is, if you're looking for six figures you have to mostly stick with consulting, tech, and startups. Of course there are exceptions, but I found the higher pay options at other firms and tech like Box, etc.
