It depends. Also depends if it is a good fund. Some big VC firms pay lower base salaries (capped at 200k or less), but you can make millions off carry. Depends on your level though

It’s not like MBB where the pay is generally known. It’s varies wildly on the fund and if you’re in an investment role, a lot of pay is performance not base salary

matches top bucket MBB, maybe 10-15% higher

I have an Interview with Citi for Angular Developer UI Position, Can somebody please tell me the interview process and the question ask mostly for Angular Developer Position.

I hope there is some scam going on in the name of Fujitsu India consulting.
Last week I got selected and they collected documents after week they rejected saying high expectations. Earlier they accepted for same salary hike.

Same happened for my friend today. He also got selected and they collected all the acedemic , previous company documents salary slips and they rejected him saying same.

They could have told the same when they ask for salary expectations. I feel something fishy.

I got a verbal offer from a WPP agency today. The role's budgeted salary is 5k less than my desired salary.
The recruiter can get me closer but still not at my desired salary. Otherwise - it would have to go through a long approval process with no guarantee that the salary would even be OK'd.
I'm coming from a small agency, so I could be wrong - but I don't want to sell myself short by accepting the first salary they offer. Do I have any room to negotiate? Or is that risky?
