Turned 42 this week and starting to reflect on my career. Have spent ~18 years in consulting most of it in public sector healthcare space in tech transformation, system implementation/integration roles. I feel like a generalist who is only good to do PM or PMO work and doesn’t have the personality to constantly be in the selling mode. What kind of firms could I target which could pay $175-180k base for related work? Thanks.

Have you considered moving to industry? Being a skilled generalist can be powerful in senior roles. Being able to manage folks from multiple specializations, respecting their expertise and knowing how to leverage it while proving guidance and strategy-level decision making. Being a generalist can be either a handicap or a superpower, depending on how you approach it.

You’re in trouble because at your stage of your career, expertise is expected. I would find a role that gives you that over the money.

Project or Parma manager in tech, internal strategy roles, chief of staff, transformation manager - you know the typical exit roles. They would appreciate your skills.

Hi everyone,

I just graduated from my bachelors and I have received an offer for 3k per month (incl bonus) from Accenture in tech consulting (level 11), which was my top choice. However, I am not very satisfied with the pay so I wanted to ask:
1. I might also get offers from PwC or Deloitte, are they likely to pay more?
2. Is that enough to live a comfortable life in Amsterdam Zuid?

Any advice for asking for almost a 30-35% raise. I recently got an Office Manager position and I wanted to renegotiate my pay. It's a brand new location with branches nationwide. So for a few months I had to do everything myself since I was the only one in the office at this location. I did extremely well and everyone's told me I've been doing a great job. The company has been telling me I'm going to change and get different responsibilities over time.
