[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Consulting. Top school. Been out a while. Generally earn $400-500k but it can vary. Sometimes stressful and does require some travel but also very flexible. [/quote]

Good lord. Do you consult on your own or work for somebody? [/quote]

I've done both. For my school I think I am scraping the bottom of the barrel. Some of my classmates give that much to the school in alumni giving.[/quote]

Statistically there aren't any bschools in this country where earning 400-500 isn't doing really well compared to peers.  That's BS.  [/quote]

Probably a troll, but it might be a function of industry / circle of friends. If I compare myself to my PE and IB friends I make jack shit, many of them if not all of them are north of $500k now. Some (and not an insignigicant #) are north of a million. Compared to my $200k and change....I'm only a few years out, Pp may be in a similar boat and just have more years behind him/her. [/quote]

Not a troll. I said in my first post I've been out a while. My classmates tend to be heavy in investment banking and consulting. Several Goldman MDs and Mckinsey and Bain partners. A couple of CEOs, including one of the top multinationals. Of course those tend to be the men (which were 75% of my class). A decent number of the women don't work. Very few of my classmates are in the DC area. Most are in NY, Boston and SF/SV.

I am not familiar with statistics on MBA salaries 15-20+ years out. Maybe the person who referenced those could post that. [/quote]

Best data source I know of:

http://scholar.harvard.edu/files/goldin/files/dynamics_of_the_gender_gap_for_young_professionals_in_the_financial_and_corporate_sectors.pdf

See page 10. There's another version of this that had salaries by industry as well and obviously finance dominated the highest bands. [/quote]

Super interesting. Thanks for posting. So this shows that mean for males at 13 years out is $442k. Women are much lower. And consistent with my classmates many women have dropped out of the workforce.

The person who accused me of BS because I said my classmates are making more (and we are more than 13 years out) should read this article. [/quote]
