Promoted in July. I didn’t take long, from connecting with the recruiter to offer was about 2 weeks

$150k

Not sure if you are asking me but I had 1 year as SM under my belt. Also left for a SM position so I suppose, if your expectation is to transition out to Director, you would be higher in expectation.

You can probably get $180K as an exp SM.

See below. Accidentally replied outside of this

I agree. I was asking as I had agreed with the $150k noted above (see my comment in the reply) and noted possibly higher if you get a Director role.

So we are on the same page and in the same ballpark

Congratulations! What’s the job title you landed? And is this base only or all in with bonus?
