You can bet on about $100k. Consulting pays like shit until you're at the very top, which few people get to.

Lol they offered me 60K TC ๐Ÿ˜‚

60k? This position sounds like itโ€™s for our acceleration center. If it is, donโ€™t take it. That isnโ€™t actual PwC consulting - itโ€™s offices we have in lower cost of living areas (South Carolina, Shanghai, Bangalore) that the core consulting practice leverages to get work done faster+cheaper. A senior associate in PwC advisory/consulting makes about 110-130 base depending on level and location, and then a bonus on top. If it is in the strategy& division, they make 150-180 base. This is definitely the AC, and you donโ€™t want it. The pay is terrible, the work is monotonous and boring, and you donโ€™t get to work with clients much.

I think youโ€™re right it is an AC, what I was told was itโ€™s basically lower in pay because of geographical location :/ do you think if I ever relocated I could apply out for โ€œinternalโ€ PwC positions?
