How is that 80k after tax? 80k after tax is very very good IMHO. If I'm not going crazy, all the other posts here were before tax take-home salaries, right?
This is all fine. Just remember: you can´t buy bottles with Starwood hotel points morons. If you are in consulting, you were not good enough for banking

Talk about retardation. I've interned at both a top bank (GS/MS) and one of the MBB's, and I can tell you the quality of people is similar.
True, you can't buy bottles with Starwood points, but at least you'll have a job. The days of the 130k+ first year banking salaries are over, at least for the next few years.
who wants a corporate amex when you can charge it to your personal starwood amex, collect the points and get reimbursed?
Hahahaha

Who wants a personal amex blue cash, when you can charge dinners to your personal Citi mtvU card, and get 5% of the bill applied to your student loans? :-P
man everyone's is crazy high...i guess with MBB or the like they would be. As such im just happy to have just received an offer at a firm that i like doing what i like:
non MBB (west coast corpfin consulting)
58 base
3 signing
5-10 performance
66-71K total first year
Ringtailuredlemur, that sounds about right, I guess the 3K variation might be on a firm-by-firm basis and might be broken out as a relocation stipend or something of the sort for other firms.
Also, its my belief that bonus variation is lower in consulting (as in, 10k is very standard)
If any other former consultants want to weigh in, please let me know (I was in an MBB satellite office which is where I got my info from)
payscale is a great site to compare salaries in almost every field and if it doesn't cover one i found looking on monster.com and even craigslist to see what companies are paying for positions. Our company just started using a peo to manage our salaries.

You are good enough to shine my shoes in an airport right now banker noob.
Whats the difference between a large pan pizza from dominoes and a banker? The pizza can feed a family of four.
The sell side is actually gone right now. Good luck keeping that attitude in a year. Get back to excel.
You also can't buy bottles if you're in the office until 2 a.m. every Friday and Saturday.
And you can't buy bottles with SPG points... but you may be able to expense them :-P
Don't get too heated up, he is probably still a freshman. :)

Eww.
man everyone's is crazy high...i guess with MBB or the like they would be. As such im just happy to have just received an offer at a firm that i like doing what i like: non MBB (west coast corpfin consulting) 58 base 3 signing 5-10 performance 66-71K total first year
Does McKinsey not do bonuses?
They do, 5-15K for 1st years.
Though I've heard its pretty much just 10
1st years are 62K base, 5K signup, +10 K bonus = ~ 75K all in
Not bad for 60-65 hours a week and no risk
What i've heard is that the more prestigious the company, the less it pays, is it true ?

@big_unit Thanks for the bonus info. I'm 95% sure base is 65k though (at least in the cities my friends got offers in).

satellite = non Boston or just no dedicated HR/ops?
Satellite = not major city, with HR stuff run out of nearest major city (ie a Chicago, LA, Boston, Atlanta, NYC)
May just be a timing thing - I think the move to $65k happened fairly recently.
wrong thread?
models & bottles ? Try a desk and healthcare
lol
Former Big 4 Strategy & Ops

Top Econ/Litigation Shop 65k base 5k sign on 10k - 15k bonus (slammed with work this year)
I will be starting as an IS consultant on the functional side (finance major)

5 relocation
I know its a little below base but I am just happy to have an offer and secure in a very strong tech company for the next couple of years

65K Base 8K Signing Moving expenses 5-15 Performance
everyone else was pre tax, had to be a typo
M/B/B, major office Europe (based on XR at offer date I found these figures):
95k base 10k signing bonus 17k bonus
=122k
Plus retirement contribution and awesome perks...Did I mention 6 weeks vacation?
No wonder I turned down one of the two best IB groups (GS TMT or MS M&A)...
If it helps the IB analysts sleep at night, I can disclose that the XR has weakened against the dollar since then.
HotShot, what are your income taxes like?
Fairly high tax level, which to some degree explains the high salary. The firm also adjust salaries for PPP.
Hotshot, that's obscenely high pay if you're just out of undergrad.
For Non MBB, 2nd tier: 70K base 7K signing + relocation
I have four years of higher education to show for and no work experience except for internships, thus no phd/MBA.
hotshot, were you recruited out of US or Euro undergrad?
This is a dumb question, but does MBB stand for McKinsey/Bain/BCG?
Yes
