You can get salary guide here http://www.jobseekertalk.com/index.php?showtopic=8

I just resigned as a senior system engineer, my past job is a software engineer and my current position is senior analyst programmer. As you can see that my position keep changing, but what I am doing is the same. So, my next promote position will either be System Analyst? or Senior System Engineer to System Consultant? Software Engineer to Team Leader. I think is basically depend on the company, some consultant is still doing technical stuff and they are not giving opportunity to manage something such as people a project.

I would suggest go for Business Managent Consultant, as those con and insult are just dealing with customer, company hire them to represent their company to serve customer base on their business knowledge, while system/software engineer are mostly deal with computer, those code, technical stuff. Depend on what you would like, u like dealing with ppl or computer? but certainly consultant will get higher paid.
