I have an initial discussion with a recruiter after the holidays after having my resume flagged as being a possible fit for two roles. This is with Accenture and the listing mentions that it’s for a Manager role. I have 10 yoe, 7 in federal government. Is asking for $185k with a 20k bonus too much or too little? Currently at another firm and looking to jump.

I know managers that started near that. If they won’t budge on salary, push for sign on. There should be more on the table for the sign on.

You’re probably looking a bit high (in my opinion) if you are going federal. I think Federal may be closer to $150k for an M. But with the current state, who knows…$185 may be there. You could also do a $170k-$190k range type of thing

I think corporate is even lower. But I don’t work corporate and never have looked into it, so don’t take my word as truth.

Try Accenture LLP. Federal corporate salaries are far below your expected range

There would 100% be managers at both ends of that pay scale. I feel sorry for the bottom end ones.

One of my friends works as a Director in Nagarro. She has been there for 7 years and has a CTC of 42 with total yoe 17. Per current trend this is low even though she is a constant top performer. She says that even though delivery people play a pivotal role, they are not paid well. In her team, she sees technical people earning 45-50 at 10-11 yoe. So the factor is 2.5 for delivery vs 4.5 to 5 for technical roles. Per her, this is quite common in Nagarro & she is not an outlier. ctd in comments

The Current scenario of high attrition rates and job shift by taking multiple offers has been caused by a resource crunch in the market. However I have a feeling that this particular scenario of shifting jobs by way of multiple offers and getting high salary is creating a bubble in the market which will burst causing a ripple effect of lay offs due to cost saving efforts by organisations in the near future. In a scenario like this how can one change the job by avoiding the bubble?
