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

Not my ideal exit but I accepted an offer at another Big4 for a 26 percent hike in base.
Ideally I’d exit to industry in Product/Program manager role but I really needed out and this came up so I took it. And Im on H1B so I cant keep interviewing/accept a better offer if it comes up, once the transfer is initiated.
I can’t decide if Im happy or sad. I’m relieved for now.

Hi all,

Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both
KPMG and EY. I’m more interested in the EY offer, but they are paying 3k less than KPMG.

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!

Got an offer for SE III at a large tech company. Product I'd be working on interests me and I think I could grow more than in my current role.

Currently I make 180k base and have ISO/RSUs @ startup (60k/yr worth on paper, but won't be worth anything for a few years, if at all).

The offer is:
Base: $166,500
Target Bonus: 10% ($16,650)
RSU: 120k total (30k/yr)

Thoughts on offer? Should I counter?

Additionally there's a yearly target RSU bonus about equal to the cash bonus. Thoughts? 4.5 YOE

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.
