Yes, any big 4 will pay about $140k or higher.

I would hop companies every 18 months and you will accelerate your earnings very quickly. That’s what I did. Move to NYC, get a raise there for HCOL then move back to a MCOL city. (Also what I did.)
I made the huge mistake of staying at the same company and accepting small pay increases for 13 years. Got a new job post MBA with a 20% pay bump but still trying to play catch up.

Honestly you should be able to do what you do for big 4 or Accenture and make at least $200k TC. Some industry jobs for your level will pay $200k base with another $50-$60 on top of it. So many places are hiring now, I’d be cranking on the LinkedIn and cold applying. Happy to chat more over DM if you want. Also - comparison is the thief of joy. I have no doubt you can get to a $180-$250 TC but you shouldn’t feel behind. Not ever.
I am very grateful for this information, I’ve been low balling myself for a while now. Good thing is- it’s never too late. This app has been super helpful for just the short time I’ve been on it. I’ll definitely be working LinkedIn. I agree- the market is hot right now! Thank you!

Keeping up with the Joneses is an unwritten rule here but either way that’s really low for post-mba
Depends on where you earned your MBA from and which firms recruit there. A lot of the consultants here went to top 15 programs.
Very much dependent however on where in the country you are are what experience you had preMBA. Still however less than would have anticipated for post MBA salary

Where was the mba from?
Baldwin Wallace University (Ohio), in Data Analytics. It’s a reputable school, but not top 15.
