I have a salary question about Accenture's (AFS) salary for a consultant. I'm in the DC area, worked as a federal healthcare consultant for 3 years. Six years of experience post-masters total. Just got my PMP last fall. I've had two interviews with Accenture for Consultant and supposedly I have one more. On my first recruiting interview I asked for $120-125K. The recruiter said the highest they could go would be $110K- 112K plus a sign-on bonus. I thought that was kind of low. Thoughts?

That sounds about right for non-cleared work. Health is really tough, especially if you're not clinical. My wife is at 118k at a top provider with about 20 years experience and relevant undergrad and grad degrees from top 10 schools.

I have an interview with Korn Ferry for an associate principal role and am curious about others’ experiences have been with work-life balance here. Also, I have an idea of what I should be compensated in this type of role, but any insights on how they pay compared to others would be helpful. Are you traveling during the pandemic or have client interactions been virtual? Lastly, if you are a consultant here, are you on billable hours? My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.

Is Operations paid the least at your respective firms? I was hired to a Client Service Delivery role with a heavy focus on project management. I regularly interface with leadership internally and at the client. But, I am aligned to the “Operations” capability and make the least of my teammates who perform seemingly identical work but are aligned to “Strategy and Consulting.” I worry I’m on a career path to being paid the least wherever I go, because Operations is in my title and background.
