Received consultant offer from ZS and LEK. After knowing that I have a competitor offer, LEK matched ZS’s sign on and ZS later on increased the base salary to be higher than LEK without much negotiation. I’m happy with the both offer numbers tbh. Is it point to further negotiate at all?

No point in further negotiation as I really doubt either would go higher - now it’s a choice of what work you want to do

Mmm the LEK DD rep doesn’t really stand in LS at lek. We do mostly strategy. We also get a lot of laterals from ZS, if that tells you anything.

Other sectors at lek do a lot more dds.

We mostly see people moving from ZS to LEK than the other way around. LEK compensation is far higher than ZS.

Now, WLB can be better at ZS as you essentially make your schedule at the Manager level. If you want to spend your 50-60 hrs a certain way, no one will stop you at ZS.

WLB prob better at ZS as well

Is there point*

What base + bonus did each offer? Also, what city is this for?

How much is ZS offering for C position?

Also keep in mind that M at LEK is far higher comp (380-400k).

Hello Folks,

My Current co offered me a salary below the market range and I have got it to their notice but finding tough luck in asking them to give me the industry standard range..

I am exploring new roles and when I tell new co abt my expected salary (as per current market standards) they find excuses to not consider the bump and say “ Oh we can give from your current sal “ any tips on how to negotiate and match my pay (as per industry standards) as I don’t want to be underpaid..

Thanks!

I moved to Canada from India 2.5 years ago for my PG in IT BA. I have a bachelors in IT and I worked as a developer for 5 years back home. After my PG, I spent 8 months looking for a job, my current company interviewed me for Technical project manager, but they offered me the role of a PC. I accepted it without negotiating as I did not want to lose the opportunity, I am extremely underpaid and I have been doing the job of 3 people, as my company keeps firing folks. I’ve lost all my confidence.

My perhaps naive perspective is that Brahmins are a caste but also a religious subsect. One can be religious and seek similar devotees without believing in or perpetuating caste hierarchy. Reductive or fair?
