Either your next company will take ownership of your clearance or it will go inactive, but it can be reactivated after a certain period of time. So no, your clearance is not tied to the company that sponsored you.

Your clearance is tied to you and a govt contract. If you leave clearance is “in active” and can be (generally) activated when you join NewCo and they have a contract that requires your clearance. If inactive for a period of time you can lose eligibility.

In sort yes make new company aware you have it and make sure they can carry it if you plan to stay long term and you want to keep it

At least for the clearances I'm used to dealing with, it can stay inactive for two years.

Keep in mind it can take a long time to transfer a clearance from one sponsor agency to another if you get on a project with a different agency.

Of late I am receiving multiple "negative feedback" ,"profile on-hold" from HRs. I am sure as hell that this feedback is based on the pay and not the technical/managerial/director round results.

Generally, what are people typically paying for manager level talent (people management level, but not hard sales metrics/senior manager level; whatever the titles are in your orgs) in the federal govcon space right now? I am seeing some pretty uninspiring numbers from places like GT/EY (like $110-130) and better numbers from Deloitte GPS/AFS ($140-160+). Obviously this will vary on skillets and projects, but I'm curious what people think.
