Quitting Bain to accept a job at Google for a similar salary. I always saw posts here about how people significantly raised their salary when they jumped and wanted to add my one data point where that wasn’t the case. I do think it will be alot better $/HR though!

Hardly a data point w/o your level and TC at Bain

Indeed!

That is a statement not a data point. If you were making 320 K, you don’t have a lot of room unless you get into senior roles. Most people don’t make 320 K

Hey OP, mind if I DM you to learn a bit more about your YOE and the interview process?

Sure!

It depends on how well paid you are for your area. I’m stuck at my comp until I get to around 10 years then I can make a jump from 320 to 430 but there isn’t anything for me until I pass that experience gap so I agree that it can be good or sometimes strategic to get paid the same especially if you believe the new role will develop a better skillset

For most people who are being paid like $80-200k they should focus on getting at least a 20-30% jump with each job hop

Looking at exits into pharma and biotech. Have an opp at a biotech at the SM level. Total comp excluding equity is around $190k; RSUs vest over 4 years with annual refreshers, so first year equity would be around $6,200 and it would go up by $6,200 each of the next 3 years, plus whatever base bump I get. Very good benefits package.

They envision 2-3 years before I jump either to AD or right to D. Solid opp? Or hold out to go straight to director level?
