Got an offer from Capgemini for a cloud architect position based in Dallas, TX. Here is what they are offering
Level C2
Base pay 160K (I had asked for 190K)
YOE ~17 years (9 years as Architect)
I know the offer is not good. What do they typically offer (level & comp.) for this experience level?

Sad. I get paid more to make graphics with words and colors on PowerPoint. Well, I don’t, my analyst does. Well, neither does my analyst, our offshore team does that. We just get all this money for sounding and looking incredible during presentations and making our client feel like they are the only person that exists in this universe. Here is your sparkling water for this meeting before you even asked. We had it imported from Iceland right next to that cottage where you and your family stayed two years ago.

With that level of YOE, you can go for manager or higher at b4 depending on your consulting experience.

Sounds good for Dallas... low cost of living and no income tax

Pay for C2 sounds nice but with that YOE, I am surprised they offered you only C.

I can confirm grade C2 is Manager level.

SC1: C here is grade, not “Consultant”.

Dallas is no longer a low cost of living city.

Which cloud? Sounds low for cloud architect roles

Definitely lowballed

When you say C2 do you mean Consultant or global grade C as in Manager?

Manager sounds decent. There’s a learning curve when coming from industry. If you go in as SM you would have significant sales expectations and be able to lead large engagements, etc. This gives you some runway.

160k sounds about right for Capgemini in Dallas. Maybe see if you can negotiate up to 180, or at least get a signing bonus.
