What are some things I can negotiate with an MBB offer at Consultant level? I’ve heard base + bonus comp offers are pretty much non-negotiable. What else should I consider in an offer?

Start date, relocation (maybe), signing (maybe). Tenure is the big on generally since it speeds up promo although it means you’re at more risk of failure if you don’t get quickly.

You could maybe argue your relocation bonus if you have a good reason, but we have very set comp at entry level

Only sign on from experience

Hello All, I’m a project manager but seeking to pivot into UX Research. I do have some experience but don’t have a portfolio yet. Can anyone advise if I should focus on going through a bootcamp or focus on getting a Masters in HCI? Or just building a portfolio with the experience I do have? There are very few entry-level roles and many places are only hiring “Sr UXR” with 3-5+ years of experience! Any tips on how to break into this field and/or stand out as a junior applicant?? Thanks!
