I am currently a Band D (Director) at IBM and was offered an AVP position at Cognizant. Want to hear specially from IBM and Cognizant employees if you think it’s a step up and a desirable move? TC is roughly 12% more ...

Nah, CTS work culture was amazing but its not any more. I would choose IBM over CTS if money is not the only factor here.

I am not familiar with IBM bands so I won’t be right person to answer this question.

What band are partners at IBM? D? Was not aware of Director level / Band D at IBM. AVP is above Sr Director at Cognizant. I feel they are heading in the right direction with recent leadership changes in the past 2 years. I was close to joining them

They start at Band D and move up to C, B etc

Not sure about IBM bands, but AVPs in Cognizant are quite senior. On the commercial side, they manage a book of business of about $50m, if not more. Most Country Heads are VPs and Regional Heads are SVPs. EVPs (only about 12 of them) are in the EC.

Based on what people have suggested, looks like you'll be moving laterally at Band D to AVP.

VP in CTS is considered very good position you will have 5-10 Director working for you and you will be in charge of 3-5 practices. No idea about avp also no idea about IBM director position. Ex CTS here

Band C IBMers go there as SVPs

The decision should be based on bonus+future growth in role. What kind of bonus do you make right now at IBM for Band D relative to your base salary ? What opportunities do you have to grow to Band C in your current role ?

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co.

I'm not sure how to reply to them because I have a feeling that my requirement may be out of their range and while I don't want to undercut my value, I also don't want to be cut out of the process because it's an interesting co. Any advice?
