I just got an offer at McKinsey and I was wondering if the base pay is the same across all first year BAs or if there is typically room for negotiation this early in the career. What other questions do I need to be asking?

Drop the TC spread so people can see. Also congratulations

The base pay is typically fixed I believe, but the bonus can change depending on yearly performance. This is done as all BAs come in together. Promotions are also based on performance/time spent at the firm.

Its usually a fixed amount.

I got this offer – there is no room for negotiation.

31M here. Met a girl last week, 31F, and we hit it off instantly. We have so much in common and everything feels right, tomorrow will be our 3rd date.

I have this fear of getting hurt or putting in effort only for it not to last.
