Slalom Consulting Hey guys, had a salary/role question. I’m interviewing for the Austin branch in Advisory Services (Product/Project Management), and I have 4.5 YoE (all related to the role). The recruiter thinks I’m a better fit at Consultant rather than Sr. C but at Big4/Accenture I’ve been interviewing for Sr.C or Associate Manager. Is this typical for Slalom? Also Glassdoor and other places have a wide band, what should I look for in a salary range? 120-130K base? Thanks!

Yeah, we are pretty annoying about bringing people in as SCs. Myself and a few folks in my network were brought in as Cs when we were SCs in Big 4. Pretty easy to get promoted within a few months though.

Shoot for 135k base. Ask for 140-150, they’ll come back with 130, then counter with 135.

They don’t offer initially but I was able to negotiate a 10k signing bonus

Yeah, they were kinda shady about it when I interviewed and totally wasted my time.

Or ask for 155 and settle at 140k. If you don’t perform you should be prepared to stay there for a while. Remember you’re being paid for what the company can bill you out for.

Also fair, go for it.

Also yes - negotiate hard

So, I’m interviewing for a position that fits perfectly, HR likes my profile, had great conversations with them. Today I had a Panel interview with HR and the hiring manager. The manager is not experienced, it’s her first r manager role and she’s been in it for 3 months. I was prepared but was out of breath the entire interview, had a knot in my throat, had trouble finding my words. It’s like I had PTSD when this manager came into the picture. Ever had that?
