[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have this job. I work for Capital One. I wfh 2-3x a week, my in office hours are 8,30 to 4. Some weeks I work in office 3x, sometimes 4x, sometimes 0x. Depends. I make about $250K. 
Not a lawyer.

Bottom line: look at Capital One.[/quote]

Wow, good to hear! I'm interviewing with Capital One now. Do you mind sharing your title/rank (not your identifying title, but the general term), ie - are you at the Manager or Director level, making $250K?

Also, is 8:30am - 4pm considered a full day? I had heard 9a-5p was the norm.[/quote]

Director.

Make sure you can solve break even problems - it'll come up in the case.

Sr manager comp will be closer to $200, Sr Director comp closer to $300. [/quote]

Forgot to add, comp varies significantly by job function. Ops doesn't pay what analysis does. What general job function you looking at?[/quote]

All good perspective - thank you! I'm interviewing within the business analysis track. Are these figures including the bonuses? [/quote]

Yes. Bonus for sr manager will be 30-50, bonus for director will be 50-90. On top of that you can add 7.5% 401k match, employee stock plan, deferred comp plan, etc.

What level are you looking at ? [/quote]

They said I'd come in at the business manager level.  I've looked at glassdoor and there seems to be a really wide range, but I imagine some of that is due to some respondents including the bonus in their total annual and others separating those out. What would you ballpark as a good offer for a manager level position? Since you're in such a helpful mood (thank you!), any negotiation tips when/if an offer comes? I haven't done this in a long time. [/quote]

Manager level varies a lot, but I'd say expect $110-$120 base and bonus will be $20-$30 I believe. You can probably get them to $130 base of you push hard enough - and have something to hang your hat on - but a lot depends on the hiring manager. Some care a lot about what the offer is relative to market, others take the view that they should offer something reasonable and move on. HR will give them a recommendation, but ultimately the decision lies with the manager. As for negotiation, all depends what leverage you have. A good existing job - I.e coming from consulting - gives you a leg up. A masters. Relevant prior experience. Etc. Negotating based on the benefits package would be tough; employee stock, rich 401k, free parking, dirt cheap gym, 30 days emergency daycare, discounted food - unless you are coming from google or something it'll be an uphill slog on that angle.

I'm surprised you are asking me about comp over the interview. You must either be smart with numbers or confident. :) practice your algebra, setting up equations, reading and interpreting graphs, etc. The cases will all have some basic math and a moment where you have to intuit the next step. My best advice is keep the input numbers they give you on one sheet of paper and do the math the ask for on another. That makes it much easier to refer back if they change a variable in your equation (what if my cost when up 20%)?

Also don't sweat the behavioral. Unless you are awful, you'll do fine. Focus on nailing the cases.
