Just got an offer to work at Guidehouse public sector SC for ~$120k coming from industry (+20% base raise). However I’m not clear on the bonus structure. Can anyone clarify ball park what the average SC level performer makes bonus wise? 4.5 YoE in case it matters.

Run away. Bonus is not clear, neither are salary increases. This firm literally slashed a ton of benefits and made no announcement to staff. Evey good employee is leaving (reason for your high salary).

Is that the primary reason people are leaving? Can you speak to culture / work life / growth opportunities? The folks I spoke to in the healthcare group seemed pretty solid compared to others on consulting I interviewed with.

Can you clarify why? I see a few people here saying that and literally nothing else so some context would be great

I was a above average performer @ Guidehouse (public sector) last year and made a $3k bonus off a 80k salary. Wasn’t happy about it but hey better than nothing

Base I’m happy with but my concern is total comp may not be fully aligned. Even though base vs base my increase is 20% my bonus target at my industry role is 10% of base. So if their bonus is approx. 5% for Sr Consultant then my effective total raise is really only 8%. Less if you factor in that I was a high performer the last few years so my % scales up currently.

I just took an offer for $120k at SC there as well. See you soon if you do elect to take it. I see there are a lot of bad comments, but I came from Deloitte Tax to Guidehouse Federal and think it’s a good next step. Though to be honest, my old base was 83k so this is nearly a 50% raise.

Hi Fishes ,
I got an opportunity from Axtria as a Senior Associate/ Lead - BIM. BIM is one of the Axtria's business vertical.

I've cleared all rounds of interviews including final HR round and salary discussion and at last HR told me that he will get back to me with next steps. It's been over a week, I did not get any response. I have called HR and he said he is checking with internal team and getback to me.

Anyone from Axtria or past employees have any idea for this kind of situation?

Thanks
