I start my first position consulting in June. Government client providing SaaS solutions.
I also start my EMBA this fall with Darden or Ross.

Salary starting will be $130k

More senior consultants, what did it take to break into the $200k and over range? After 2-3 years and completing my EMBA, is getting a promotion/new position in the DC area over $200k feasible?

Military background, Global Supply Chain Analysis experience, PMP and Six Sigma Green Belt (Black soon)

Sounds very feasible. If anything you may be able to hit that sooner with bonuses - presuming we don't hit a massive recession in the next 6 months bc of war, supply chains, inflation, etc.

Fwiw I was in similar position (going through a 2 year EMBA program while in consulting), with a similar salary. What landed me in the 200k club was joining my client, which happened 2 years after graduation and probably unrelated to having an MBA (though having an MBA from a good school was prob minimally considered during salary negotiations). Not sure you'd be able to achieve such an increase through an internal promotion

That's helpful. I've seen the internal track and it would take several steps to raise the base to that level.

Consider leveraging your network while you're going through the emba program to figure out different paths you may want to pursue. You may also be able to go through campus recruitment with the FT'ers (not sure these would be 200k salaries but maybe for tech leadership dev programs). Good luck and congrats on starting the emba program soon!!

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter. The hiring manager was very straight forward with me that I was his top candidate and I was told all other interviews were very positive incl CMO. The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?
