No difference at all. I came in with a masters degree. Tried to negotiate my base salary but no luck. Got my signing bonus doubled though.

As far as I know, there's no difference, at least in the base salary

I didn't negotiate 🙄 @EY3and @EY2, do you have any work experience? Also, @EY3 when did comp talks come around?

like

At D it was a $3000/year difference in starting salary (regardless of number of non-MBA masters)

No difference and also negotiated, but only for a $1000 increase in bonus. However, when comp talks came around my salary was increased by $11k.

I tried to negotiate too. Came in with a Masters. They wouldn't budge at all. Said the entire class starts with the same base salary and there are no exceptions

I have a master's and MBA. Tried to negotiate and got the same story as EY1, except I was told that I am making $5k more than my peers who came straight out of undergrad. Also tried to skip promote...that was a nonstarter.

😞 poor us

Hi! I have a quick question and could use some advice:

I have 1 job offer that is an hour away and pays 45k, after negotiations (Research Associate Position at a University) .

I have just interviewed for a position closer to home and a base salary of 65k, but haven’t heard back from them in about 2 days (He said he would make a decision by yesterday and I’ve reached out).
I have to decide on the first offer by Thursday but I haven’t heard back from the second yet. Thoughts on next move?

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?
