I'm was promoted recently to client manager at a consulting engineering firm. My background is 16 YOE working as a Senior Plumbing Designer. I didn't get a compensation increase when promoted; however, after 7 months of great work in my new role I would like to negotiate a compensation adjustment.  My expectations are 120 - 130k a year base salary with 20% bonus. Does this sound reasonable for the MEP consulting engineering industry or should I try to negotiate a different figure?
