Switching consulting agencies atm.
Currently I earn way below average at 42k€/p.a + car. Next week I am negotiating with another company wanting to employ me. I am actually bringing in a customer with a fixed 2 year project @ 1000€ all-in/day rate (5 billable days/week). What salary should I aim for - and what bonuses? I would love something around the market average of 65-75k is it realistic even though I am in my mid 20s?

Thanks for the insight. Aiming for 72k€ (~£65k) seems kind of realistic then.

Why not become self-employed and do that 2y project yourself? 240 billable days a year means 480k€ in sales with little to no overhead. So you would easily make >200k€ / year.
Great way to build your own business and never be an employee again.

Provided the work can be done by one individual. If it needs more than one, then the economics don’t make financial sense.

Can anyone give me their honest opinion on working at Eli Lilly, the Indy site? I have a few coworkers that have worked there in the past but no one recently. I’m currently being recruited pretty seriously for a in-vivo technician position in the auto-immune team, but I already have a job lined up at Envigo as a small animal sx tech. Salaries would be comparable (Lilly would most likely be a little more with bonuses), but if the culture sucks, I’d hate to burn a bridge with Envigo.
