I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?
Hi Fishes, Pls help,
YOE: 13 yrs
Cctc: 13 lpa
Have cleared HCL interview. Initially they offered 23 lpa (via proposed offer letter), but i requested to reconsider it for 25 lpa.
After 5 days, they sent final offer letter of 19 lpa (stating they can offer max 50% as per L4 approval).
Queries:
1. Is this normal or rare case, reducing the offer amount from what quoted initially?
2. Should I accept or negotiate?
I don't have any other offer as of now.

Leave. Major consulting firms are going to have severely reduced comp increases for the next 1-3 years so you might not even get there in 5 years if you stay. Chase the money
35k raise this shouldn’t even be a question
Why do you think you won’t hit the comp for 3-4 years at Accenture? I’d reckon you prolly get there in less than 2 years especially if you get promoted this year

This would be very low for federal with a clearance.
I’m in corporate finance so the jumps aren’t as large and promotions aren’t as frequent.
Can I ask what you are doing at the startup? I’m on the consulting side but I am chasing similar jumps and loyalty doesn’t have that
