Same, heard from the people I have talked to that comp is lower, currently at $100k after 3 years in consulting, want to ask for $125k because I have no strong need/desire to leave ACN and they are reached out and want me to join them, thoughts?

Interesting...$100k at Consultant level...does not seem very alluring. I also heard there vacation days are less. Wonder if they have any other good benefits to outweigh those? You would think they would AT LEAST match your current salary, to bring you over right?

Smile.

'Consultant' is a huge range and includes folks from 3 to 25+ years experience. Of course, comp varies accordingly. Expect ~1week less PTO in exchange for never getting on a plane. Other benefits is you can have a major impact on the firm itself unlike the big 4 (ex-Deloitte here).

Fewer vacation days, lower compensation, less structure, but more staff aug roles.

Be authentic. Slalom’s interview process can be time consuming as culture fit is a big component. They offered me a 20% jump on my base salary.

@SC1 market is Operational Effectiveness practice in San Francisco

What are the main project focus areas in the Minneapolis office? Growth opportunities there if you want to advance to leadership on a reasonable timeline? What sort of clients are you targeting? Small, Medium or Large size companies?

Anyone know anything about the la office?

I liked working for him, we have great rapport and I could do permanent WFH since he is in another city. I don’t want to burn bridges, would this be a bad idea? Or an easy decision?
