On the cusp of making a career move to Merkle and taking a new Associate Director position in Paid Social. Negotiations went well, so salary and signing offer are good atm, but any thoughts in the community about their work culture and management? Want to get a feel for how direct reports feel working there.

What comp did they offer you?

115k + 10k signing bonus. Semi-clear track to other promotions after est. 18 months.

A few jobs ago, I had a boss who came from Merkle, he is my #1 most insufferable boss of all time.

That is all.

I just got a job offer for an Entry Level Software Engineer at Boeing in Saint Louis. The salary is $82,000 with an $8,000 sign on bonus. I was hoping for an offer closer to 90k base and I don’t care too much for a sign on bonus. However, this is a lot more than what I’m making now, and would be my first SWE job. Should I counter? If so, how would I go about doing that? Thanks!
