What's the market these days for someone with not-great technical skills, 12 YOE, TS clearance, hard-to-find/unique skillset, elite masters, middle management in DoD contracting, experience with critical/high profile roles?

I'm thinking 120-135k would be bad/mediocre, 180-195k would be possible/a stretch, and 160-170k would be doable/realistic. Thoughts? Not interested in Deloitte.

BAH OP, we’re nearly in the same boat. I’m about 13 YOE, with all of the above. 190k base, LA level, GDG.

Btw, here in LAX (Lakers in 5, btw), all the Aero companies down the street are handing out 200k+ base salaries to people like us, especially with TS/SCI. Plus better 401k match and annual incentive bonus. I’ve received 2 during COVID, and I know a few LAs that have taken up on these offers already.

So to answer you question, $200k+ base in Los Angeles. It’s everywhere here. Just not at BAH.

Damn. I’m at 3YOE and making 140k, no masters, no technical skills. I feel like if I’m at 12YOE, I’d hope to be making at least 180-195k...or maybe I’m just reaching lol

Palantir?
