Ideally you land between: $98 - 105K+
On average you see: $88K - 95K
Increasingly common: $75K - 85k

Typical factors include: Experienced hire A vs Campus hire, COL, group within Consulting, A2 vs A3 promote, ranking(high performer/higher contributor) and niche skillset.

As D1 said there’s “no such thing as usual”, I asked the same question before in the KPMG bowl and got tons of responses like K1. I ended up with 36%, A2 > SA1; you can figure out why I got that much.

No such thing as usual - depends if you are on the lower-end, middle-end, or higher-end of the band in your current level. If you are at a higher-end you may not get much of a bump because you may already be at the middle-end of the new level.

That's the thing, what is lower end, middle end etc. 70 as an associate should be on the lower end for that group i assume

Depends on a lot of factors, but typically 15-20% on average. Can be more and can be less depending on your situation.

Mine was 11% because I was on the higher end when I was hired from industry

Thanks for the answers! Much appreciated

Here is the TLDR LEK doesn’t suck post.

IMHO, our stint in consulting’s purpose is to develop a corporate strategy skillset. Doing CDDs is one of if not the best way to get a ton of reps and variety in our 18 - 24 month tenure.

With options among MBB, T2 incl S&, EYP, and general Big 4 / ACN MC:

- Take MBB (can ask for CDD, overall better comp package)
- Reject B4 MC (won’t get it here)
- T2 (pick other T2s if you want way more strategy projects that aren’t CDD / growth strategy)
