Currently in the process
Was given an offer for a 87% raise, going to aim for 90% lol
But usually I always say it’s not worth moving without at least 25% raise

I’d shoot for the stars. I got a 70% increase when I switched tho I was severely underpaid at my previous firm and probably could’ve gotten more if I had just asked

What was your jump? I’m considering switch from one big 4 to another at the senior level but into a different service line

Sheesh I can't even fathom how much work I feel like I'd be expected to do for 30% more comp haha. I'm probably only a little underpaid right now from what I can tell, so maybe that's why. But if I interviewed and was offer that much of a bump I'd be looking around wondering what the catch is. Like, am I selling an organ?

For context GPS, $13xK, only a 6.x% bonus last year, 3+year at level, growing responsibility (so yeah that bonus was insulting). Too much more information and I'll likely dox myself and I know my leadership is on here hahah

funny

The reason I am asking is I am currently discussing my low salary with Deloitte HR, so I am asking for 23% and giving reason saying if I switch, I would anyway get 20-30% outside too.. I shouldn't look crazy asking for that.. so just confirming.. :-)

You won’t! Do you have another offer in hand? That helps these conversations go your way. If not you’ll need a partner involved in those discussions.

I don't at the moment, but I told my TBA that I am actively applying for competitors and may switch.. She said give me a figure that you are looking for before you start to look for job..I am currently at 109k at Project Delivery Manager level. I am expecting atleast 135k. Fair or I am quoting low?

Is that pdm in GPS or commercial. 135k in gps isn't impossible but it is stretching it. At least you've got a lower overhead/wrap rate in your career model to keep you profitable. Assuming that is, you're billable as at least Project Lead LCAT or Analytics Project Lead (these are DOD/ federal lcats, no idea if they translate outside DOD/federal)

I left for about 50% more after bonus consideration. Totally worth it. I also had to relocate to a higher COL area. If I could stay in my original location, I wouldn't have left for less than 20-25% more.

Last jump was 42 percent. To be frank I wouldn't really leave a job for less. Fortunately that hasn't been too difficult the last few.

Been around 30-40% for me in the past. My last jump was 33%

My jump was 7.5%. Lateral...

Food for thought: the US is actually one of the most racially conscious places I’ve ever lived. Not saying we don’t have a LONG way to go and that there isn’t immediate important work needed.
But the amount of allies this movement has is incredible. Keep in mind this is just my experience and may not represent others- however, in many of the other places I’ve lived or traveled to, racism is almost tacitly accepted. You wouldn’t have people calling out taxi drivers for ignorance for example
