Buyout DeskRequest a call

Take paid calls with Microsoft employees weighing the voluntary exit offer

For former Microsoft managers. 30-minute video calls at your own rate. You keep 100% of it.

Independent service, not affiliated with Microsoft. Payments processed by Stripe.

Your rate is paid to you in full. The client pays a separate 20% booking fee on top. Suggested rate: $85 to $125 per call.

What a call covers

  • You share how you decided, what you wish you had known and your own severance math.
  • You do not cover advice on stock, RSUs, ESPP, taxes or anyone's separation agreement.

How it works

  1. Apply with your last role, year you left and rate. There is no cost to apply.
  2. You see each request without the client's name and decide whether to take it.
  3. The client pays through Stripe before booking. Your full rate is paid to your bank.

Apply to take calls

When a request fits, you see it first, without the client's name, and can decline. If you accept, the client receives your profile without your name: last role, part of Microsoft, years there, year left, rate and what you can talk about. Your name is shared when they book.

By applying you agree to the Terms (including individual arbitration) and Privacy Policy, including sharing nothing confidential from Microsoft and confirming no agreement you signed stops you from taking these calls.
