Agreed! Also, I feel like a lot of the typical salary negotiation stuff you see doesn’t apply to consulting anyway

The classic “I am looking for at or above market rate” answers this question while not locking you into a salary range.

The above posters do have a point, in that consulting doesn’t have a lot of salary negotiations and it really depends on if you have in demand skills.

Which one should I go for?

1. Oracle - 18.3 LPA fixed + probable bonus (I may or may not get)
2. Amadeus - 18 fixed + 1.5 variable.

Amadeus is also giving joining bonus of 75k. Amadeus is paying more, may give better hikes too, but I am finding it hard to let go off Oracle's brand name on my resume even if it's means around 2L less over an year. I am planning to work for atleast 3 years in my next company.

What would you have done in my place? Should I go for Oracle or Amadeus?
