Not sure if anyone is still following this, but I’m looking for similar info. Maybe others will follow suit - I currently am approaching 5 YOE. Our comp structure is bonus-heavy and driven by billables.

Y1: $72-75k + $20k bonus (incl signing)
Y2: $82-86k + $50k bonus
Y3: $95-98k + $62k bonus
Y4: $98-107k + $80k bonus
Y5: waiting to find out about raises/bonus (not a promotion year so my hopes aren’t high) Curious what others are seeing, especially after your title is somewhat capped.

Brattle just gave everyone generous bumps (bonus + salary) for 2022 to ensure everyone catches up to and stays at market despite the crazy inflation -- have other consultancies done the same?

I cleared technical round and during final call with HR, my salary expectations were higher as per HR.

My current CTC is 9lpa, skill-IAM and Java, YOE-3. I asked for 14lpa, best they could give was 11lpa. I know I asked a lot.

She didn't care to negotiate and cut my call and now they put my candidature on hold. Can I expect call back? Or i can consider myself rejected?

I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice
