Are you the head of the dept? Also matters year’s doing that role. Also, are you committed to fix a broken dept or just go there on a client team retained? I would look at time in role if there to fix something - can do 1 year salary if let go without cause within 1 year and the it goes down to 9-6 mos in yr 2. You want to give them a poison pill that allows you to make some breathing room for when you rub people the wrong when when they don’t want to change and start blaming you for things, because you’re affecting change. If not there for that, 3 mos? Depends on what you want. Can also ask for paid benefits, etc. good luck.

Another option: 2-3 weeks for every year worked. Also consider including coverage for health benefits for an extended period of time

I’ve heard 3 months. For top jobs it’s absolutely negotiable. Especially because it damages your reputation if you lose your job early on.

Currently a big 4 consultant and got an offer from FAANG for a strategy and ops role that would bring my total comp up 60%. I’m really grateful for the offer and really excited, however, I am also interviewing with MBB. It has always been a goal of mine to work for tier 1 strategy firm as I’ve always felt on the outside looking in at big4. I feel like most exit ops from strategy would be S&O industry roles but still can’t get these MBB firms out of my mind. Am I just overthinking this?

Hello,fishes!(1YOE-SDET)
I'm trying to attend several interviews. My current CTC is <10LPA, therefore even if I switch jobs and am offered a package that is 40%–50% higher than my current CTC, my new income won't be much higher than 12LPA–13LPA. However, I am on the lookout for even better ones. So, if there is a negotiation, can I mention to HR that I already have an offer of at least 12 lpa and persuade them to give me more? Will this ruse succeed? Or will they demand to show an offer letter?

I saw that if someone passes at least the CFA level 1 exam then the requirement of CSC is exempted. Can anyone enlighten me about this? As the CSC exam costs above 1000 CAD, I wanted to be sure if I need it before investing behind it.
