People at Slalom. Are the hours actually better (when do you go home)? Did you take a pay cut if you came from big 4?

That is weird. I make more than that and was recently told by my manager that I am underpaid and that Slalom will be giving me large raises to make up for it.

Thanks y'all, when do you leave the office typically?

I got an offer from them and they said they can't offer me a raise because I'm at the high end of their comp. I'm at $140k. Pretty bogus.

What's the pay difference between a practice area lead and a solutions principal? I have buddy interviewing with them and those are the roles they threw at him. Big differences in responsibilities too?

Practice area lead is usually a Solution Principal's boss, so, they earn more. PALs have defined $2-5m sales targets for their practice, whereas SP does not have a defined minimum, though they do have sales targets. Bonuses for both depend on sales. A lot about the specific job would vary depending on the office and size of the practice. Some practices are large enough to have multiple PALs (with a Practice Area Director as their boss), whereas in some small offices, a SP could be responsible for the entire practice's P&L.

Should I have negotiated more? What are the things that I can focus on in the next appraisal cycle? Want to know the thoughts of the experienced professionals.

Partners or whomever can help me understand about billing and hours. To keep things simple, let’s say you only have one staff to work 1,700 billable hours a year on a $60k salary and you have only one job that and the rate charged to the client is $300/hour and an projected hours budget of 1,700 hours. So ideally you would have revenue of $510k. If the staff takes less time partners make less money and if they take more time partners make more money while the staff keeps the same salary?
