120k is extremely doable

Idk about extremely doable. Was told that 120k is the very max that they can do for a Senior role (with expectation of going up for M in the first year). Either they super lowballed me, or 120k really is the max. Either way, I didn’t go for the offer.

Is it doable? Sure. But you better be bringing quite a bit of experience; you are at the bottom of manager salary range.

In consulting? I’d be surprised if significant less, maybe in LCOL.

Just curious many YOE is this?

For 2 yoe, yes you’ll probably be turned down and given a more realistic range

Does anyone have answers to this for today's economy? I have 3YOE and am getting promoted this year to SA. The SAs that have been hired recently are making upwards of $100k but everything I have been told is I will be around $90k (same practice, same office, same team, same YOE).

I make $75k base now, is $100k out of the question given what my peers are making? If they are willing to hire others in my exact scenario for +$100k but not give an internal member that wants to remain loyal the same salary, what are we doing here? Likely will have to leave if I know others with my same resume are making that much more than me just because the time of hire...

Any advice?

Does anyone here freelance on the side? How do you price yourself? I work in data science and so my w2 pays me $300k so around $150hr when broken down to hourly. Can I reasonably do the same work on the side through freelancing basing the project cost around $300hr? I just want to create an additional income stream since I was growing my real estate business for these past few years and now I’m waiting and saving for future opportunities and I’m bored and would like to increase my cash more.
