Got an offer to join Microsoft as a digital advisor. Currently a senior manager in Deloitte and should be promoted to director this FY meaning 3-4 years before partner. Base salary is only a 2% jump but TC ~ 30% tho there’s vetting period in stock bonuses. HR refuses to reveal MSFT level of DA role and it’s path so hard for me to compare. My questions are - is it worth it to join MSFT as DA given where I am and what’s the career path like for a DA in MSFT? Thanks!

They refuse to reveal level? That’s a huge red flag to me from the recruiter not negotiating in good faith.

Digital advisor is just fancy for “enterprise architect” as I heard. Saw a few of those in the last year being posted globally so it is looking like a new unit / initiative. I don’t know the career path but it is an individual contributor role if this is what u want

You should ask for the level. This would define your career progression and help you make an informed decision. Offer seems a bit low. What’s the break up?

Congrats op. I have my interview next week. Mind if I DM you ?

Been with Big Four advisory (GRC) for 10 years. Really tired of meaningless “consulting” and commoditized implementations. Recently been through a rough job search and finally landed an offer with a mid size bank in their risk practice. People say that the culture there is quite political and bitter but I’ll learn a heck lot and get a new opening on my resume. Salary is the same. The other option is to take a consulting job that pays me 50k more but do the same work! Thoughts? Thanks!
