Any thoughts on this offer I received from Microsoft in audit coming in as a staff and working my way back up to project manager? They mentioned there is no flexibility on base but some wiggle room in the others. Base: 115; Equity Sign-on: 15; Cash Sign-on: 5

Idk, I’d reject since you’d basically be moving back to staff. An 8% bump doesn’t makeup the years you put in to reach manager imo.

I’m sure there’s a lot of room to grow! Having FAANG on your resume speaks for itself. I do know that FAANG demote since it’s so competitive. Im honestly jealous though. MSFT is one of my dream company haha. I’m trying to work toward where you’re at! Best of luck to you! :)

I wouldn’t worry too much about the title if you expect to be back at a manager title within the year. Your resume will speak for itself with YOE and # of years in PA. An 8% bump isn’t great (I’d say a manager should expect to leave for more like a 20% bump). But if you’re excited about the company and the work and your new coworkers, etc, that has value too.

Doing the math, if it’s approx 8%, that’s like 8k more than you are currently making. For an Audit staff position? It doesn’t make sense to me. I think Microsoft had some Audit Manager position opened few months back and it requires 3+YOE of experience. Not sure if this was what you applied for ?

Please can I DM you to get more insight about this?

Usually FAANG only down levels one level...
