120 is not unreasonable assuming you have a skill in high demand. I’ve seen technical project manager roles for as much in tier 2 cities.

120k for manager level in industry seems high esp in smaller market. Is it some specialized skill or education?

like

If you’re a special matter expert than $120k is about right. If you don’t mind moving I say go. Experience in industry is usually more beneficial and you can come back to consulting within the next two years. Just make sure you are ok with the move. Environment makes a huge difference in happiness

What is your salary as SA going to be?

city in the midwest. Currently sitting 77k but I got promoted to SA this year - so my salary will be higher come 10/15. I’m thinking the industry offer would need to be at least 120k for me to make the move. New role is mgr level. Thoughts?

Yeah it’s a specialized tech skill. Okay. Thanks for the advice all!

@MC 1 - I can’t imagine it’d be over 92k. Probably 87-88k is more likely

We find out in early October

Ok I am confused. You interviewed but didn’t discuss salary first before interviewing (standard practice)?

If so, were you able to negotiate a percentage of the consulting fee? Or was it a bump in salary during the project?

Hey, another question for y’all. How should I reach out to a recruiter who offered me a full time position but I rejected for a better offer?

How would you approach this situation? Thanks in advance!!

The manager is not experienced, it’s her first r manager role and she’s been in it for 3 months. I was prepared but was out of breath the entire interview, had a knot in my throat, had trouble finding my words. It’s like I had PTSD when this manager came into the picture. Ever had that?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

I’m currently working for a small technical consulting start-up firm. I make good money, have great benefits, and they seem very happy with the work I’m doing, so I know I could move up quickly. However, tech consulting is definitely not my dream job. I want to get into data analytics, and I have an offer from a big company to do just that. I’ve only been at my current company for about 8 months, but I don’t ever see myself loving this job. How do I know when it’s time to make a change?
