...the thing is he reached out to me, and following the initial screen said that he thought I would be perfect for the role. I still think it’s too good to be true and didn’t mention my current salary but if it comes to fruition, it’s a no brainer. Just trying to figure out if we are actually THAT underpaid and if this position is way out of my league.

It’s pretty common to move from a manager role to a Director type role that pays in the $200s. If you an an exp senior I could see that happening..

Sounds like an inflated title... what are you making now, and what is the target bonus for this new opp?

Thanks for the feedback, SM. I was thinking the same thing. Currently at 120. All in quoted was close to 2.5x that.

I’m 31 though. Took me a couple of years after college to realize that I wanted to get into consulting.

I would do this not because I like you, but because I would get a $500 gift card if you refinance more than 30k of loans. You also get a $200 gift card. If you don’t want my referral, I’d still say check it out because the rates were pretty great!
