how much should i be expecting to make with 8+ years of work exp in the field and ms in cs. job is AI research and software lead development. went to top 10 school in the country. is 160-180k sounds about right? location boston/DC area #salarynegotiation #salarycomparison #raytheon #ai #salary
What’s your TC now at Booz? I agree that for principal level and east coast metro area, 180K seems on the lower end..
Associate Lv
But this was before I got my AWS and Masters in CS. I’m prob at Lead Associate if I do a market adjustment application (MSA) but I know I’m unpaid at Booz.
Prob the latter. That’s why I’m asking—bc I’m interviewing around. The salary range on payscale and Glassdoor said 140-220k so it’s hard to tell. They agree to pay for my mba and PhD if I continue. Anyone else knows else others are offering 180k with stock options.
Paying for your MBA sounds nice but paying for your PhD just sounds stupid. Any respectable STEM PhD program would already be paying you if you are doing a PhD
They pay you to be an RA or TA usually, if you're working already you're probably not doing that
Are you trying to prioritize for wlb and stability or tc? Move into tech or finance my dude.
Well I like research/development more and like to publish. I got burn out start ups though
In that case I suppose you’ll have to take what you can get. Legit research staff positions are insanely difficult to get in big tech. Somewhat more available in finance but you’d be pidgeonholed into really specific types of research you may not enjoy. Have you thought about taking a break, making a little money, then going back for the PhD grind?
They will pay for degree as long as it is relevant to AI/ML work. I want to get into Wharton with a prospective patent for start up. I am never going to do any program full time — only part time programs only bc I enjoy learning but also don’t want to lose income while working. I did my ms in CS at top 20 CS school part time

Principal for 180k? Either Raytheon has terribly inflated titles or terribly low TC
Terribly low TC. I don't know about principal level but I left that industry because Amazon offered me literally double
What tech companies call principal is closer to "fellow" at Raytheon (E44 level)
