Pay is 150 base for associate. I think they generally are in line with MBB but with higher bonus

May I ask what consulting firm you are coming from? Feel like the team is predominantly Ex-MBB. Everyone on the team I know is Ex-MBB / HSW, so I would have to imagine the pay is at least on par with consulting but definitely less than deal team.

Hi! I'm a seasoned benefits nerd 🤓 with a little bit of compensation experience (less than a year, my current role has thrown me into the thick of it and I'm doing my best lol).

I also enjoy working on cross-functional projects, but I don't care for Employee Relations.

I'm open to remote, or Hybrid roles (Florida). I took a slight pay cut when I moved to this job and that is not something I wish to do again at this time. (Looking for a base of at least 95k)

It seems like everyone is in agreement that switching firms gives you a salary boost, but that you could be viewed as someone that doesn’t stick around. Has anyone felt like they got held back from jumping firms every 2-3 years for the salary bump? I know peers that bounced around 2-4 times in a 7 year span and they are making significantly more money than if they stayed at their first job, however it didn’t seem like any of the new companies cared that they bounced around. Other experiences?
