Interviewing with a commodity trading firm that will match my consulting TC but with a much higher bonus component (30% vs 5-10% currently).
In B4, I have ended up with 0% bonus in the bad years. Can Industry bonuses be that variable too?

Of course bonuses can be variable...do not ever count bonus $ as part of TC, outright

I wouldn’t consider commodity trading “industry” it’s still a professional service. If you’re good at your job you shouldn’t have a “down” year like consulting as you can swing with the market, but the 30% bonus figure they listed should be highly variable based on individual performance if you’re in a trading or quant role.

Thanks, Won't be a trader at this firm. Will be part of their IT organization specifically Data and Analytics group.

Many thanks.
