Need help with salary expectations, please. Interviewing with Aon/WTW/Mercer for lead/senior associate type roles in their Rewards consulting practices (have 3 years of relevant Human Capital consulting experience, an advanced degree and 1 exam from ASA). Is 125k base too steep of an ask (HCoL)? Its on par with PwC base for a Sr Associate but not sure how comp at these other firms compares. Thanks!

WTW is known for paying less than competitors because of the benefits offered. If you care most about pay, you’ll have to go with a different company. If you enjoy flexibility, WTW is a good option.

Healthcare costs are very affordable for us, they offer services for their 401(k) package, and you have the respect and understanding from your team that you’re a human. I’m honestly too low in the food chain to get into the details of other benefits.

Generally reasonable - I’ve received offers from Mercer and Aon at $115k and $120k base for 3 YOE (no advanced degree or exams)

These firms pay peanuts compared to private consulting firms. Might get $85-100k at most

Joined Cibersites India Bangalore in Jan 2021 which is now htc global. There was no CTC revision with March 2022 salary, and so far, no news of CTC revision. I know employees working for over 24 months with no CTC revision. My question is are the appraisal formalities mere formalities? I'm unhappy about the pay structure. For a 65k PM CTC, I hardly get 52k in hand. With rising inflation, and no salary revisions, it's just going to be difficult. Tenured employees, please advise. 😥

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
