110. Strategy with MBA, 150
What about tech
110, u can try for more, but hard to push above 115-120.
Hmm, bonus %?
Base $105-$110, if in MC; Strategy might be 10-15% higher. They’ll throw you sign-on ($5-$10K), and annual bonus target is 3%, but if you’re a high performer, you might get them up to 5%. If you get the money in base, they won’t give you much flex in bonus, no matter what your performance, realistically.
Tech is less than both MC and Strategy, unless you have a niche skill set
Wouldn’t be MC. It’d be Salesforce which is tech
106k in Salesforce practice
Damn....I’m already making 100k and our bonuses are bigger
Ask for it. They initially offered me $105K, I had Deloitte counter, and then they went up to $110K. I said I was still considering Deloitte, and they made it $115K plus $15K sign on.
Ok thanks
You can only get what you ask for. It’s all about the negotiation .
How many years experience? Did you share salary goals? Maybe you need to come in at higher level.
4 yrs experience....isn’t the next level manager? Would like to make 120-125
The next level is Manager, which sits around $115-$130ish for a new promote.
Doubt they’d bring me in at manager level since I only have 4 yrs of experience
They won’t. And you wouldn’t want to come in as a Manager yet. Even if you’re very good, being a [good] Manager at a new firm is tough even for more experienced people.
There is an associate manager role between consultant and manager. Similar to senior consultant at other firms. That may be best target. Communicate your salary target to the recruiter. Just have a transparent conversation. They will be honest with you. Keep in mind our Salesforce practice has a 10% hot skills bonus with many of the sfdc certifications after you are with the firm one year. So 120 is really 132 plus bonus.
What are the hot skills?
We have a long list of certifications including many sfdc certs. If you have these you get an extra 10% bonus paid out 5% every 6 months
