Consulting Salaries in Bay Area?

Hey all. A recent alumni who's working finance for an F500 at which I'm going to be interning told me that his starting salary was "the same as consulting but without the bonus". I know this was in the Bay Area, so does anyone have any ideas on consulting salaries in the Bay Area. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
