Got approached for a director role at Avanade and recruiter says they can meet my 300k salary ask. That salary alone would be a ~60% increase in my total comp (moved internal at D a year ago). Any red flags about Avanade? Would be tough to give up my current 9-5 flexible schedule but at that comp imagine I should apply / see how the opp seems right?

I've heard of numbers in that range for total comp as offers from Avanade. Say, "Thank You, where do I sign".. They have the same benefits as ACN, and, as someone alluded to, I also heard they have a great culture. If the role is something that you want to do, and excites you, then go for it. Think of it from a career standpoint though, and make sure that it is right for what you are looking for, career wise.

300k for director at Avanade sounds really, really high. IME Avanade is typically on the underpaid side, but I heard they have have been working on making comp more competitive. If that's really the offer then take it, it's a great company with great culture.

Take it and run. Avanade is a decent place to work. Definitely not worse than any other medium to large sized firm.

Culture is great. Work is top notch. Access to all of the resources of Accenture and Microsoft with a more fun vibe.

Did you ask for 300 base or TC?

300 base. And double checked after phone screen to confirm. Final round end of next week 🤞

Also would like to know what the comp package looks like

Will let you know if I make it past final round

OP (or anyone else), did you accept? What was the final offer if you did.
