Received an offer from a pre-IPO (Series D) AI software startup in HCOL city. Trying to assess the offer.

Role: Strategy Manager
Salary: $115k
Equity: 5000 shares ($80k)
YOE: 3.5
Benefits: About as good as they come

I thought the base salary was going to be higher. Am I being greedy?

Have an offer to move to a Fortune 500 company as a finance manager and an offer to move to a small PE owned company ($200m in revenue) as a business strategy manager. Same pay. Small company has me working with CFO/CEO/PE firm directly and large company has more benefits and defined career progression. Also the small company doesn’t have maternity leave and only has short term disability whereas the F500 has 1 month leave + disability. Which to take (kids in 2-3 years)? High impact or security?

I’m a senior associate at a v10 firm considering an in-house senior compliance position at a pharma company. Seems like a good fit and a good opportunity. It checks all my boxes but I’m worried about being pigeonholed in compliance and not being competitive for legal roles down the line. In practice, this job would involve both legal and compliance work but I’d sit in compliance. Has anyone had any issues going from a compliance role to a legal role, particularly in healthcare?

The CEO asked me to stay and implied a larger role, but doesn't have a clear picture of what that looks like. Asked for my help in redefining. Even unsure as to timing or whether we'll hire another GC. Questions for Fishbowl: (1) benefits or pitfalls? (2) questions or requests you'd have for CEO?
