Consulting Partner currently at $325k
OTC base/bonus structure. Way under
valued. In final rounds with Microsoft for
a level 66/67 role, targeting base/bonus/
equity model. 20 years of experience,
living in medium cost of living location.
I'm looking to finally get comped
according to the value I bring. Any
advice on what a reasonable target comp
splits I should strive for at Microsoft?
Maybe negotiate level 68? Maybe 200k
base / 40 annual bonus / 300k annual
equity? Or $1M OTC? Thoughts?

At least 400k base and 300-500k a year in stock sounds like a good start

I think Level 67 is a good level. 68 is probably a stretch but possible.

the numbers are way off - consulting companies pay a bonus and base pay. Tech companies pay a lower base and give lots of equity. Your equity starts to pay off about 2 years into your time at the company.

I expect that you will be around 450-500k tc

Do the role that sets you up for success.

Tech employees have a hard time following former consultants - better off to start at a level you will succeed at and build a platform for long term success.

Keep in mind that managing tech staff is harder than managing consultants. Also ...their business model is different than consulting.
