I left a job at $132k to join a Big4 about 18mo ago. Most hellish 18mo of my life. BUT. I'm always in demand for interviews, no one ever questions my experience, and I've gotten my pick of job offers as I've looked to exit. Finally chose a company that may not be as flashy as consulting, but it pays $180k. I could not have negotiated a $50k salary bump in such a short period of time if not for my time at a Big4.

Never again though.

Woops, I think my reply accidentally posted to the wrong bowl! (I'd started a reply to this thread earlier and went to reply to another - I think it took me to the draft for this one instead of the other one.) Sorry if my response made very little sense!

To hopefully tie the two together in a more sensible manner - I have about 8 YOE in my field. I worked as a Sr Product Manager at a financial firm in marketing automation when I took the job at the Big4. I did have a hard time finding a job that would get me to $150k when I left my previous product management position, which was my initial target - I was surprised when it was so much easier to negotiate higher once I began looking again. I'm back to basically a Sr Product Manager role, except now it's a Product Owner role, and I'm managing a team.

Yes

No

Geo? The role is technically based in dallas but I live in austin / work remote if that helps

Decent base salary

Yes

Any bonus, stock or benefits? Or is this the TC?

I would start with competitive analysis and mention similar positions in the area that are getting paid more and show them how comparable those salaries are w.r.t your offered position's salary. Also, if they're hesitant about making an increase on base pay, then explore the possibility of getting a one-time bonus at least, so you're getting something for the first year. For next year you can aim to have an increment based on your performance

I think it’s fair in this market. I have 10 years of overall experience and I’m right around $200k total comp working remotely.

Yep but my time in product is five years, all ten at the same company. My base is $180k

We are looking to hire a FTE for systems integration. We are using Mulesoft as an IPAAS. I’m part of the hiring team. The pay is 6 figures it is fully remote, the benefits are insanely good and it can be your second job if you are very good. If you are great, it’s probably 15-20 hours of work per weeks. If you are good enough, I will even cover for you to coordinate with your primary job. DM me if you are interested as I’m tired of the crappy recruiting company we are contracted with.

DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
