I'm considering an offer at a mid-tier consulting firm. They’re offering a base salary of $85k with the possibility of a 10% bonus based on performance. It's remote and I'm in the mid-west. Curious to know, is this competitive for someone with 3 years of experience? What are you guys seeing out there?

This is not competitive.

I received an offer for $100k + 10k signing in a LCOL city from BDO consulting (mid-tier firm imo) back in 2018 when I had right at 3 YOE

It’s difficult to get a heavy comp right now and depending on where you are living, it may be the best you can get right now (remote). If that’s the initial number they gave you, I would highlight why they should give you a 7-10 K bump to start negotiations

Hello guys, I am a ML Engineer by profession and have recently heard about the AI Centre of Excellence at TCS.

I've that the COE team is supposed to guide TCS employees on client end. However, I've also heard that as they do not generate any profits, TCS moves them to client side as soon as possible.

Could anyone please share some insights about work at the AI COE at TCS? How's the team and how's overall growth in terms of skills and payscale? Are there any drawbacks of joining AI COE?
