Need your wisdom Partners :) Currently SM1 Base $160k in LCOL in B4 Advisory. Just got a Sr. Director offer from the industry at $230 base + $100k signing + $40k stock. Similar role in technology strategy and helping a new senior leader (used to be one of my clients) build out their portfolio. However lots of deep relationships at the current company and leadership has acknowledged that I’m on partner path in the next 3-5 years. Would love any inputs/feedback or items I should be thinking about.

What can I expect for an OTE (base plus variable/commissions) for a director level partner development role managing a portfolio of GSIs? I’m based in NYC. It seems like many of these roles are at a 60/40 split (some sample companies I’ve talked with: google cloud, Microsoft, salesforce, twilio). I’m negotiating an offer and would love some insight on whether I’m getting a fair package.

I’ve gone through 4 rounds of interviews for a Product Management role at a FAANG company. Was told before the last round I just completed that it would be the last round (basically involved a case presentation to sr leaders within the group). Heard back from HR that they’d like to schedule me for one additional round with an even more Senior Director from the team. Fish fam - any experience having additional rounds added or what I should expect from this latest final round?
