No haha. More like 65-70 if LCOL

Agree 65-70 BDO is cheap. May be able to negotiate for more with covid and their demand.

Again, depends on their experience level and when they came in. I’m higher than almost every director in my old PwC group HCOL. Legacy vs legacy - PwC likely makes more. BDO pays more than PwC for experienced hires.

80K - 90K

No way, I got $76k as S1 and $85k as S2 in HCOL at BDO, just this year. EY is paying me much more now though lol

72 if I’m embellishing

70-80

I just got a job offer for an Entry Level Software Engineer at Boeing in Saint Louis. The salary is $82,000 with an $8,000 sign on bonus. I was hoping for an offer closer to 90k base and I don’t care too much for a sign on bonus. However, this is a lot more than what I’m making now, and would be my first SWE job. Should I counter? If so, how would I go about doing that? Thanks!

Even without LinkedIn, I see a lot of people younger than me in much better roles. They started off with relevant jobs right out of college. I graduated in 2009 when the economy tanked and worked in retail for years before I was finally able to land in corporate. Does anybody else struggle with this as well? I’m constantly comparing myself to others who are younger than me.

A manager I work with is my official mentor at the firm. They expected me to do something for them in busy season when I was booked on another client, but when I try to get time to talk to them about my reviews or performance, they seem to just ignore my invites or reschedule constantly and last minute. Is it wrong to feel annoyed by this? What’s the motive behind that?
