What’s a competitive consulting salary?
Let’s be transparent for everyone’s benefit and share some experience on comp structures in this area.
For protection and controls, specifically protective relaying settings and configuration what is a competitive comp structure at major firms in this sector?
In particular, I’m interested in manager/director level comp structures. What are your KPIs? Do you have equity or RSUs? What’s the expected amount of business you need to bring in to feed multiple teams?
For me, I am fully remote, senior lead level and have seen 180 - 250k depending on how well we hit our goals. I am no longer in the trenches but operating at the advisory level and mentoring teams.
Edit - I started out at 80k plus bonus, then quickly progressed as I gained experience and changed employers after gaining enough experience to do complete design and relay configuration for greenfield transmission stations. Now I don’t touch design.
