Do Nike. Great brand. I don't think doing director versus senior director is going to hold you back. Plus, the important of quality of life and location cannot be understated...

like

Also, I had a few client counterparts who worked at Nike and LOVED it there. They said the culture was amazing. I don't know how Walmart is internally but we all know they're horrid to vendors

Nike. Can you really bear going from consulting life to Walmart’s draconian cost controls?

How many of the people commenting have ever been to Arkansas let alone Bentonville. I am from Denver and would take Bentonville over any large east coast city for cultural reasons. In this case I might still choose Portland but when I have been to Arkansas on business I’ve really liked it.

Do you want to sell apparel or groceries? And do you want to live in Arkansas or Portland?

I interviewed at WM recently and actually came away impressed. Yes, Bentonville is not Portland but as a former southerner I can say with authority that it's not redneck and WM has some pretty smart people.

Would probably lean towards Nike though

Ok so I live in Arkansas and I love it! It’s very quaint and if you like being outdoors there’s nothing like the Ozarks, PLUS you’ll be swimming in money. With that said, Portland is one of my favorite cities but I wouldn’t want to live there coz it rains everyday!

Forgot the name, but there is 1 pretty good coffee place in Bentonville. Something to look forward to.

FYI, “director” is a common title at Nike and doesn’t necessarily mean you lead a team

Thanks folks! I’m leaning towards the Senior Director role with Walmart. They seem to have a better career trajectory than Nike - this position is 2-3years away from VP1. Pay-wise, the offers are within 280-320k total package. Wish me best of luck!!

I think they have 3 or 4 levels at VP. So you are looking at ~6-8years to SVP

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
