Wanted to see if anyone with experience at Booz Allen can help me out:

Got an Associate level offer for IT Project Management, 8 YOE. Remote with some travel. The position is in Virginia, I am in San Diego. The offer was $135k. How does this fair? Appreciate you.

Well Booz pay low compared to other firms but apparently good benefits and WLB.. for reference I’m at Microsoft 5yoe making 125k base as a PM. I would think for Virginias COL if you need much more.

I was brought on as L62 and given 35k sign on stock (was told I may have been able to negotiate that higher) and annual RSU similar to cash bonus amount. So I’m going to expect anywhere from 15-30k and if I get more be pleasantly surprised. we’ll see though. Should find out in July

It's going to be hard to come up with an 🍎 to 🍎 comparison. How does that offer feel to you?

They came back with another number. They didn’t make what I asked for.

The range in job postings is the national range. Jobs typically have a target range, usually based on the contract.

Ayyy know someone going to FAA.

With that amount of experience and coming in as an associate, that’s a pretty fair salary. Booz doesn’t pay quite as much as some of the other big defense and government contractors, but the culture and WLB are very good and pretty laid back.

Coming in as an associate, you may or may not manage a small team straight away. Associate is the level where you can still be used as an individual contributor or start to do some people management (I know it will vary for some, but that’s generally true).

Overall, it seems a pretty fair offer and Booz is a pretty solid place to work (from experience).

It seems like at booz compared to other defense contractors, you hit 100k really quick then plateau. I had less then 1YOE when hired and got an offer for 115k, but looking around our internal job board it seems like they all want assets that bill less then 135k.

Hi Fishes

What would be the in hand monthly salary of 12lpa?
Thanks in advance.

I accepted a $115K base salary, 13% bonus, 10k sign on bonus (scientist supervisor) job and two weeks later, got a $135K base, 17% bonus, and 15K sign on bonus (Senior scientist role) offer from another company. Should I accept the new offer ? How do I tell the previous company about this? Also, I’ve already negotiated with the first company and the $115K base is the negotiated salary. I really do not prefer one company over the other. They’re both great! I’m very confused here. TIA🙏

Even if I invest time in learning Java I can be at a beginner level.
