Hi Everyone - I'm being recruited for a TAM (Technical Account Manager) role at Salesforce. I have over 8 years of Salesforce experience across clouds and over 4 years of consulting experience (one year with a small firm and 3 with a larger, well-known firm).

Can someone please help me understand what an acceptable base salary would be to ask for? I have been told 140k is what has been approved by the recruiter, but that seems a little low given my LOE exp. and is less than what I make now.

I think the market is shifting again and that is likely why the lower offer. I would just counter offer to a salary higher than what you make now and if they don’t accept it, stay put and/or keep looking.

I had the same thoughts! You should definitely counter to what you're currently making, if not more. If they are unwilling or unable to give you that, then there's no reason to make the move just yet

depends on where you live and also the level at which you are coming in.. look at the whole package`

Are there any additional benefits like stock options? I think if it’s not lower than your current role and a remote role, probably still a good option to enter, and then you can look for switching internally or promoting yourself.

Hi OP, what was the RSU and bonus amounts? Any commission? Thanks

Recently got an offer for salesforce sales strategy (105K TC) vs Morgan Stanley IB Strategy (135K TC). Salesforce will be 40-50 hours a week remote until 2022 and then will have a hybrid working model, most likely going in office 2-3 times a week vs Morgan Stanley will be on average 60 hours a week in office full time. Is it worth the 30K extra in compensation to commute to office daily + 10-20 more hours per week? In terms of pay progression, I think Morgan Stanley will definitely be a lot fast
