Hi Leo!

You can expect anything around 120K CHF as base and then you have the bonus on top (severance 10k every december + 5-15% EOY). 

Glassdoor also has a few estimates if you want to triangulate the data.

Best,
Cristian

Hi Leo,

That's a tough one because it depends on your degree/experience.

It's it's an MBA and you're joining as a Consultant level, you'll get double the entry-level.

If it's an “other” Master's but you have extensive work experience, then somewhere in between.

If it's a Masters and you did that straight after undergrad, you'll be very entry level (more in the 70-90 Euro range).

Ultimately, do make sure to negoatiate when/if you get an offer!

Hi there,

assuming you would start as Fellow (entry level in DACH for Master's graduates), should usually be between CHF100-130k Base salary, from what I recall.

Hope this helps.

Regards, Andi
