80-90 in HCOL I’d say and 70-80 everywhere else
Coach
Ok ill make sure to negotiate once the time comes , thank you 🙏
Can you specify location/region? That’ll determine a lot
I would say 70-80 is pretty low for that area to leave to; that’s about the range people in moderate CoL would jump for in terms of base salary
To confirm, 2 years of experience in socal? IMO 80-90 would be a reach. 60-70 is much more in line with industry norm. Bay Area can get you 80 as tech companies there pay top dollar to get talent / cost of living.
Deloitte 1, I would say 75 for base is really good; it’s not necessarily on the high end of what you can get for a base salary, but if combined with the bonus it gets to around 85, I think that’s super solid.
You can probably negotiate higher if you have specialized experience at Deloitte applicable to the industry. But if that 75 is paired with a solid bonus, it is definitely solid

Why do you need to leave your job?
