Is 265K - 275K at director level too much to ask for in East coast? What’s the norm these days for a lateral move a 10% or 20% during tough times, seems for a lateral move from J&J it would be a paycut to go to companies like Novo or Abbvie? Abbvie even has Director 1 and Director 2 moving into senior director. Roles across teams even in big pharma aren’t comparable

Even 10% for a lateral move might be a stretch. It’s an employer’s market so unless you’re exceptional in every way and a rare commodity it will be hard to push for a big raise. I know at Alnylam a Director is around 260. At Takeda it will be more like 230-245k. But keep in mind secondary compensation is also quite diverse so don’t base everything on base salary
