I have an interview with McKinsey soon, and I was wondering what the average salary was for Associates. Want to make sure I’m not low balling myself or asking for too much, so I’d appreciate any info.

No comp negotiation for traditional consultants. Deep expert profiles and our solutions / asset folks have more variability.

Google...it’s all standardized. They won’t shortchange you.

Just went through the process myself (begin work on Friday), if you make it past the first in-person interview they’ll give you all the comp details. As mentioned earlier, it’s standard and very fair, no negotiations to be had.

I don’t think they’ll ask about your salary expectations. Don’t fret over these questions.

A startup offered me stock options for my support. Now they want to start paying me part time and also offer me increased stake in the company. I am debating between asking for equity or more stock options. Need help in understanding which one to consider. For context, founder is open to both as they consider me as part of the founding team and long term plans for the company.

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
