I am a Director at a Big4 Consulting firm. I hit 250k base salary at 10 years of experience (Total comp around 400k). Yes, I like my consulting job :)
Again, does not mean tuition is not comp - just because there is a repayment obligation, does not mean you dont get the $$ value - you get it at the time of vest (which is usually post your b school years). Compensation paid by employers is compensation - and tech firms regularly include sign on bonus in Y1 comp, which has a clawback as well. Consulting firms give retention bonuses with clawbacks, each employer attaches hooks, the hooks come in different forms. Equity has hooks via a perpetual 4 year grant that vests over time. Just because there are hooks, does not diminish monetary value of the comp. These scholarships are a form of a retention bonus, to ensure people with potential stay back.
Also, for Exec MBAs, there is a stay component within tuition, which the firm covers, my tuition was $200k+, which on a pretax basis is approx 300k. I dont have to write off anything, coz my employer paid my school fees for each semester.
Attorney, 6 years experience, $950k total comp. The job is fun but not the stress and hours required to fix everyone’s problems.
