Similar thing happened to me except I came to McK. Deloitte is a great firm with great people and a lot going for with it but they are so damn stingy when it comes to pay. Good on you, OP.

... competitor for 35% hike, but days before I joined, got another email from a recruiter in industry to interview. I quoted a ridiculous number and they accepted. Now made it to industry with 115% hike from being a shitty Deloitte C. Job's chill and I finally have a life now. My advice, just hang on!

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co. I'm US based and my salary is around $250k (NYC) -I've been asked my expectation without the startup giving me a range to work from (though I've asked). I'm not sure how to reply to them because I have a feeling that my requirement may be out of their range and while I don't want to undercut my value, I also don't want to be cut out of the process because it's an interesting co. Any advice?

My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
