Yeah that’s fair. I’m project management b7 making 95k lol. They hit you with a high number up front but promotion will be no more than 15-20%

Seems fair to me. I'm a b9 w/10 years experience making 156k (they are also paying for my grad school). Annual raises aren't great but alot of other benefits that are competitive.

Yes, networking is key, and you have to find a team that really values you it's a retention play for them but I also have been able to apply what I'm learning and show the leadership this.

Base or TC?

Base.

What internal team are you joining? It will help us provide a more accurate number for you

It would be supporting Kyndryl on-boarding, so technically under the Kyndryl org.

No, that’s low especially for a HCOL location. Push for $150ish

Literally always unless you're band(s) higher

TC?

I should know more by Wed, HR needed to confirm if they can even do the $135k. I’m not too confident I can push for more, let alone a signing bonus.

So TC will at best be $135k.

Look at the stock price. Ibm has been a sinking ship for a long time. Research what their current and ex employees think about how they treat employees.

As for the offer- I was internal strategy (not pjm) at b8 a decade ago at 170k b8. Big tech generally pays 50k+ more for this kind of role when considering base + benefits. Not sure if for example salesforce vs ibm is a fair comparison though

What do you do now @m2, yoe, and comp breakdown? I want to be like you when I grow up.
