What do you expect will be your total comp (base + bonus + retirement) by age 33 (if you aren’t there yet) and what’s your age now? Not trying for a measuring contest just trying to learn/understand.

I’m 23 and I would expect something above 500k, taking into account that a normal McK path would take ~7-8 years to get to a partner and then a few years to push the salary higher by going into senior partnership( I know that it takes more than 5 years and only if your top of the top) or switching to high level positions in industry(Im interested in private equity/ venture capital/hedge funds)

I had some detours in my early 30s--had a surprise layoff at 31, then took the first (underpaid) role I could find while unemployed, then a moderately decent paying job in industry with excellent WLB after that because we'd just had a kid and I wanted to focus on being a dad and husband.

I was somewhere in the ballpark of $150k TC at 33.

I’m 31 and at ~$250 now; hoping for a promotion right around my birthday next year that would hopefully put me close to $325; if I don’t get promoted, probably be around $275-$290.

That said, I’m solidly working ~50-55 hours per week with little variance, can easily take time off, live super comfortably and don’t feel like I have to trade off between work time and personal time for an extra $150k that’d get eaten away by taxes amyway

$230-250K, 27 now

Before this COVID stuff hit I was having a strong year and was aiming for my base to eclipse 240K.

Given the current events, I’m not naive enough to expect a 300% raise in this environment.

500-700k (26 now)

Hi Bowlers,

Without negotiating it seems like Tech pays more, is that true? Or can I still negotiate more with CPG companies?

Should I try to sign the 185 offer and try to see if I even get offer with MS and let the poly play out or should I just not worry about it and sign the current offer? I am pretty sure the compensation from MS is great.

Hi Sharks,

Please guide.
I got selected in HCL.
They asked me to share the documents , but they didn't share the offer letter, it's been 1 week already.
Do they take time in releasing offer letters generally , or am I rejected already ?

Also, they mentioned 5% engagement bonus , and 8% annual bonus, do they give full amount , or some part of it.

How much an average candidate can expect from these bonus ?

How much stock do you put on benefits? I have two offers with stark differences in benefits. Job 1: role I want, but benefit sucks (2 weeks paternity leave, 20% coinsurance). Job 2: role is okay but higher level and great benefits (16 weeks paternity, 0% coinsurance, 5 more days of vacation). Total comp is the same though. I wonder if I should just focus on role but Job 2 is a large company, so I can move around after 2-3 years I’d expect. Thoughts?
