Hello ZSers,
I have been shortlisted for AC role and my HR discussion is scheduled next week.
1. Need some insights on the maximum and minimum ctc (fixed and variable) that can be offered for 3 yoe (all relevant) . My current ctc is 7.2 (6.5 fixed) . Tech stack - Big data and AWS developer.
2. Is there any joining bonus. If yes , what should be the ask.
Any inputs will be very helpful for me to go with my expectations to the HR. Thanks!
ZS Associates

Curious what you are recruiting for ! I started talking to them too and curious about salary. Honestly I’d rather go in-house if the salary isn’t competitive

Highly unlikely they will offer you anywhere near the TC you are looking for. Maybe $140k + 6% if they love you

Are you close to manager where you are now? I’d get promoted where you are and then explore moving to Slalom.
The only people getting raises going to Slalom are underpaid junior people with 2-5 years of experience that are making maybe $120-130k at Slalom
Slalom will probably offer you something closer to that as a “consultant”.
Woof, that doesn't sound too encouraging. Seems like you'd fall behind pretty quick. I'd rather not keep hopping around, but man, it really seems like that's the only way to get a serious raise at most places.
Chief
Where are you now and what practice are you interviewing with?
Not thinking current salary is relevant since it'd be a new firm, so they won't have that knowledge. Looking at the org effectiveness group. Phone screen made it sound pretty interesting, so I'm looking to have some further conversations.
I'm a manager right now and interviewing for their fed practice. I asked for $170 in my phone screen and was told that's reasonable.
I've still gotta get through the in person interviews and don't know what title they're looking to slot me in as, so there are plenty of variables still up in the air.
Chief
It all depends on what they can bill you at.
Assuming you work in tech, rates would support higher comp than someone doing coms and change management.
Still sounds high though.. fed tends to have a lower cost structure than the rest of Slalom
