Talking to Boston Consulting Group about a principal role. I was told the bonus structure is 0-85% with 17%-35% average. I’d have to take a significant step back in base pay. Do you think the avg bonus quoted is on the low end? It seems like it would be to compete for talent otherwise.

I'm surprised the base is lower than what you've got at ACN.

Are they bringing you in at a lower level?

Nope. Same level. The range is comparable to what I’m making at ACN but much less then my other offer at B4

The target bonus is half of max. Not sure where 0 or 17 come from. You’d have to be performing badly to get those numbers. And there’s 10% PSRF on top of your combined base and bonus.

Reasonable base compensation expectations for regional general counsel position (direct report to CLO)? From what I can tell, company revenue is $500M - $1B (privately held company, so tough to know); construction industry (infrastructure / energy / mining); midwest headquarters. I’d be at the lower end of the experience requirements. Looked at MLA report, but looking for additional thoughts/opinions. Thanks!

I’ve already exited consulting and don’t care to go back. Have MS from a T10 relevant to my field and no plans to change industries or vertical. Mid-30s in a mid-level strategic role in F500. Not aiming for executive leadership anytime soon but want to work towards eventually. Will I have a glass ceiling in terms of professional growth and compensation without a MBA in corporate America? Would my MS and experience suffice, or do I really need the EMBA for advancement?
