Looking to assess my current compensation. Below are the details:

Role: Test Engineering Associate Manager
Total YOE: 7 years
ServiceNow CSA Certification
Base Salary: $116,400
Last years Perf Bonus: Approx $8,000 (this was because I got promoted to Associate Manager in Dec 2021), but this amount is NOT the norm.

I have been with Accenture (Wash DC), since I graduated from Mechanical Engineering back in 2016, but I am seeing some crazy compensations with similar experience. Thoughts?

Sounds like you don’t have 7 YOE 😜

But on a serious note, I think you’re low. Could exit to tech with that and increase comp prob 30-50%

I would argue slightly less!

Definitely would push for 150-190 given your expertise

like

Not delusional at all. I know many that have confirmed 7YOE tech consulting that are in that pay band. Obviously diff variables/factors for where someone lands in pay band (certs/advanced education/COL) but it is very real to achieve 150-190 given OP’s description

Low - I was offered $135k for associate manager with 8 yoe for federal

If you are a service now engineer, then def shop around

like

Ya and I denied it because it was the same as my salary at Deloitte and I knew others that were offered $145-155k. Ended up going to a start up for $165k and am now at $185k a year later. As an engineer you can demand much more than what you are making now.

Shop around to find your true worth

With 7 yoe you’d be at minimum a manager at making 150-160k at pwc. Let me know if you want a referral

I’m 2.5 YOE at Accenture in ServiceNow. I’m also an associate manager and my base is 153K. You should definitely exit for more or ask for a salary review.

Worked so hard to get a tech exit with reasonable comp, but now that I got it, it feels weird to leave strat consulting. Consulting pays more in the longer term with much faster progression, but once in tech always in tech, more meaningful S&O work and better wlb (hopefully??)

Anyone felt this way before? :(
