Hi there,

In general, salaries are within a somewhat narrow range, but do vary region-to-region and company-to-company. Honestly, I think playing the salary game isn't worth it; regardless you will be very well compensated, and worth much more than $10-15k/year is 1) Prestige 2) Growth opportunities 3) Exit opporutnities 4) FIT (do you like the office, the culture, the people? Will you enjoy your time there).

I would easily pay $20k/year just to be at a consulting firm where I feel supported and enjoy the work.

Two other thing to keep in mind that actually have a big impact:

  • Taxes (i.e. Dubai taxes = 0%, Australia they are ~35%, in the US they are ~25%)
  • A lot of bonuses are currently being cancelled for the current year

Just adding, the bonuses are not being cancelled in any of the top firms in the Middle-East.

Hello,

It can vary a lot between different companies and counties, but the fixed part is around 120k€ and bonus could reach up to 40/50% in some companies.
Regarding Tier 2 salaries, it can vary a lot among companies (e.g. OW and ATKearney have better salaries than other).

Best,
Luca

Hi there,

Associates should expect something around USD 125k annual salary (incl. housing but excl. bonuses)

MBB's base-salary packages are lower than tier-2 for associate level and in some cases even for project managers. (Bonuses are too variable to put them into the equation)

I hope this helps

Hello!

For sure it will depend between MBB and Tier 2, also a bit among geographies in ME.

120-150K

Cheers,

Hi A,

It depends from offices and geographies.

But here, I agree with others, it may vary 120-150K

Best,
