Apply at EY. We're growing our cloud practice and there's a lot of growth opportunity. Especially with Azure. Message me if you'd like a referral.

Assuming you’re based in the DC area, why not apply at AWS or Microsoft directly? Pay is better than anywhere else and your government experience would be highly valued. Any other Beltway Bandit would pay you a premium with AWS skills too- even the SMBs. Try them before Big 4.

Thank you again for your input. Moving to big 4 in a leadership position is more of a long term. Nothing at the moment. However, I did get an offer with a small business contractor and I'm trying to assess if it will help me build cloud skills to get there.

I see a lot of people with PMP or Scrum, but I wouldn’t worry about with an AWS and MBA. Unless your current job will pay for it. You can come to EY and they will pay for a certification. Even give bonus in first two years with firm. They typically also offer PMP classes in house.

Forget PMP. Focus on real world AWS experience and how to sell cloud services.

Gotcha. Gov is a little slower to adopt public cloud so I would focus on the commercial side to work more innovative tech. In my experience, a big part of Cloud Leadership is your ability to selling / advocate cloud services to prospective clients so you can staff your team with cloud work. If all you want to do is manage cloud delivery of several projects then look at engagement manager roles.

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role at a company based in SF. I’m genuinely excited about the role and the company but we’ve yet to discuss salary. I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research. I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?
