UBS If I had to move within the company to a different location , how does it work? For example if I move from low cost of living area to high cost of living area does the company re-evaluate the base salary within USA? Or do they come back and mention its your family requirement since your partner is located and you are moving ?Suggestions or experiences any !
Microsoft is hiring an account executive and I’m really interested in the role. I have B2B sales experience in a different industry, but my skills include lead generation, prospecting, account management, negotiating, etc (all within the C Suite and other decision makers).
Would appreciate knowing if this is something I have a shot at with no tech sales experience and what I could expect for promotional opportunities and compensation.
Thanks for the help!

Go for it. Sounds like a dream come true. Big law pay - boutique culture. Thing is, you try it for a year or two and if you hate it you can always lateral out. You’ll probably get much better substantive experience at the boutique anyway.
Yeah, I guess I’m weary since it almost seems too good! But the attorneys all said similar things so it seems like a much better place to be in. I guess I’m also concerned with how other big law firms would view my experience at the boutique if I were to decide to try and lateral back to big law? Hard to say definitively, of course, and I could always love it and never go back…
I did it as a fourth year, and was with the new firm from day one. Going on three years now and no regrets. BUT I do think there is truly an exceptional culture and there is real trust among all the attorneys. We are one big practice group with the same clients so our business interests are aligned. If you’re not confident about that then it would be a lot riskier to do
That makes sense! I’m confident that the team is all aligned, and I think they all care to make it a great environment to work in. They all seem very supportive with each other and have the same clients as well. Thanks for your insight!
I’ve met other attorneys in the firm (it’s less than 10 right now but growing, all from big law firms) and they all vouched for how good the “culture” is and the work life balance. Some have been there for a year, and others a few months. How’s your experience been if you’ve made that transition? How would you determine if you’ve properly vetted a firm like that before making the jump?
