Looking for guidance/advice, please. Been at Sapient for 10+ years in Financial Services.

Salary: $170k
Bonus: <10%
I have never broken >$180k TC here.

YOE: 17
Loc: NYC
Domain: Product, Project Management, Lean-Agile

Hard time to jump ship — if I don’t get laid off first. But what TC could I be looking at if I were fortunate enough to get a new job? Assuming, a non consulting role.

In 2017, a hedge fund floated $300k TC for a BA/PM role but they then froze headcount.

Thank you.

@EY 1 thank you. No I get it, believe me. That is why I am asking for advice. I am definitely not at $450k today. My current TC is sub $200k. But believe me, I very much feel I am worth more. I would love to be in the $700k range.

What do you mean by “look the part”? Just curious.

For clarification, what is TC? I see it all the time and can’t make sense of it via context clues.

Got it. Thank you.

All my six-figure salary consultant friends are ranting about how poor they feel right now because their IRAs/portfolios are down. Think the people in this industry need to take time to volunteer or engage with some tougher parts of town and understand that by virtue of even having investment accounts, that they’re more financially safe than at least 50% of America. Sad to see
