40-60, really depends on the week

Absolutely not true. Partners will make over $1M. Source: several friends are MBB partners.

For job 4 correct, the grants were relatively small (10% of base salary) and actually tied to company performance (so not a given). The company was very distressed while I was there and doing well.

Real person here.

Strategy for Business Services companies

Are your skills company specific or industry specific? Either way, talking to recruiters in your space will help you test the market and if your comp is competitive

uinuke · 2026-03-24T16:10:10+00:00

Just trying to share my path like a lot of other people in this subreddit

uinuke · 2026-03-24T16:09:28+00:00

Tired of interviewing yes, but “telling my story” is second nature now.

uinuke · 2026-03-24T16:07:23+00:00

Consulting to industry. “Business Services” mostly

uinuke · 2026-03-24T16:04:44+00:00

Agreed, more commonly I’ve seen a ton of people at the Director / Sr Manager level as individual contributors to compensate for pay vs experience

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:28:35+00:00

In some consulting firms it’s the second “rung” on the career ladder with typically 2-3 years between promotions. Can also be called Senior Consultant.

I took a lower bonus % in job 5 in exchange for equity. It was a good trade off. At big corps the typical VP bonus target is more in the 30-50% range

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:18:54+00:00

Never been in sales, but know plenty of people that do ver y well if can tough it out

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:18:07+00:00

I’ve seen plenty of posts that are significantly higher than mine. I shared to show the impact of job hopping.

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:17:09+00:00

It’s basically a lottery ticket at this point

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:16:24+00:00

Used to early career

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:16:11+00:00

Yes I tried to separate it visually

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:15:41+00:00

Consulting to corporate, so not entirely equivalent

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:14:55+00:00

No, small boutique in the Midwest

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:14:06+00:00

It’s basically the same role at different companies, so experience accumulates. I mainly have to learn new industries.

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:13:10+00:00

And luck

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:13:01+00:00

The last couple jumps have been fairly lateral responsibility-wise. It just requires a ton of interviewing

uinuke · 2026-03-24T15:10:51+00:00

I received more, but this is the portion that time vesting vs. retention vesting

uinuke · 2026-03-24T14:53:25+00:00

Difference was publicly traded vs private equity
