Good bonus. Low salary.

That looks like a standard CPI offer

Just for reference, not bragging:

Director in a T3 city doing tech implementations at a B4
Experience: 10 years B4 experience / 3 years industry experience
Base: $280k
Sign on: $40k
Bonus: variable, but not as good as 35% guaranteed.

Feel like 280k is SM territory but maybe that’s for HCOL. Suppose the ranks might overlap a bit too

They’re probably EYP. Managers don’t make that much in other branches.

Without the group it’s hard to know. If it’s not collection based that seems about right

It's not collection based

Bonus is guaranteed at 35% for 1st year. Was told its 20-60% typically based on performance. Was also told base ir top of band and that's in line with the band posted on the req

What group?

10 years of random experience? Or all 10 years relevant to this role? Titles don’t mean much, but the base for a “director” in NYC is not that strong. However, if you need a job, obviously take it.

Is this an a&m offer or are you exiting from A&M?

A&M offer

Run!

Why?

Depends on what you do. Is this some niche topic or are you more of a generalist?

This is good info. Thank you! It's niche as in its not your typical A&M offering. Its a completely new business line. NYC is expensive and they adjusted numbers to get my total comp to 320k. Should I be asking for more base?

Bleh. Probably good in lower cost of living area, but not good for NYC.

Sounds like CPI

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…

I'm in the final round of interviews for two internal positions - both vertical. One has FTE's (my first such experience) and the other a much broader scope vs my current role

I had interviewed externally for a role on par w the internal roles, at a smaller and less established company. They confirmed +20% was in their range

How do I push back on my company if they offer less than that, if I do want one of those roles? Without a pay scale, what is the best way to approach?
