Hi, Is it good to join Salesforce for Technical Consultant role (YOE - 3.2 years) ?
I checked with few of my connections, they saying I will be mostly allocated to Salesforce industries (Vlocity) project. Please suggest about the team structure and work life balance for this role.
and also in future, is it possible to apply for IJP in Salesforce ?
Please provide your thoughts on this.
Thanks

$100k. Good rating and a good year for my firm. Wife found a way to spend it.
I am only in a AR clerk so a dollar is the most I’ve ever gotten at the company. I’m at now. This company only gives 0 to 3% if you’re lucky a year.
For me it was when I first started at Grant Thornton 5 years ago. Started as an associate 1 making 63k year, at the annual review there was a market adjustment & went to 80k as an Associate 2. Ever since it’s been the merely 3% inflation raises, not including switching companies.
My staff 2 to senior 1 raise in audit was 72k to 98k
Promotion to Director $35k base 10k bonus
The question was what was the biggest raise not total comp
The biggest raise I ever got was bout 20% more than my current base salary. Sadly, I had to switch companies to make it happen. I have found that is the most effective way to increase your base salary.
I agree. Base on the market, it's the only way to bump salary. Unless you are moving into a Managerial role in the current company.
I needed to switch jobs to make it happen. I have experienced 5 to 10% increase from annual performance reviews. Sometimes client would hold this off which is really a red flag for me. So it really depends on your goals. But I always make sure I gained enough years of experience on my current that can be advantageous for me no matter what happens.
$48k (industry) to $87k (EY, hired as senior2) back in 2019. It was life changing.
$500 per month in 1991
The biggest raise I ever received was about a 40% raise from changing companies.
The biggest raise I received and still stayed at the same company was a bit more than 9%.
I had quite a few. All of them were milestones I celebrated for sure.
2014: Started at $45k as an audit staff at a regional firm
2016: Moved jobs for a $5k raise to get to $60k. Still in public.
2019: Unfortunately got fired. Ended at $77k. Never got promoted either. Setback.
2020: Started at $65k in small mfg company, took a $12k pay cut
2022: Tried to move companies for pay raise. Current company offered me $25k raise in response to get me to $100k.
2024: Joined a startup mfg company. That paid $125k.
2026: Tried to move companies for a CFO promotion. Current company offered me a $50k raise to get me to $175k.
I usually test the job market every 2 years, but I always pay attention to the job boards. I like to always be in tune with the market.
