I would love an exit oppy at a Pharma with at least $130k base comp and reasonable WLB (~9 hours/day, being able to pick up kid from daycare?). Area is Washington Dc/Bethesda/Gaithersburg. Am I dreaming or would a job like this exist? Currently a Project Leader at BCG - would not mind pay cut at all, I just want to be with my family

This is 100% doable and I received an offer slightly above that and declined because there is better comp out there

PL to Pharma should be much, much higher comp than that. Heck, I’m a C looking at much higher base than that (in industries that pay less than Pharma).

For pharma, I would think you should target $300k+ TC. Your challenge might just be the location - I don’t know of large pharmaco’s in DC. Don’t sell yourself short!!!

Thank you! Of course I’ll ask for much much more... I just want a piece of mind that I’ll be able to be with my family in the upcoming years.. and think of $130k as a “worst-case scenario” ☺️
