A team of 2 starting a very niche consulting firm want me to join and lead the first engagement. I’m very confident in them & the product/market fit. Do I ask for an ownership stake?

I think they want to structure it essentially as I get a large portion of work I win and lead, but not in the actual company. Though I’m not sure if I should push for actual “equity”, and if so, what would be fair? 10%?

That’s definitely not how it works ya commie

Agree with above. Assuming you want something physical, a stainless steel Rolex won’t lose its value badly (or will appreciate) over the next 6 months and will functionally last forever if you choose to keep it.

Rolex > Equity

Hi all. How's everyone.

Been 3 months since I joined Luxoft and I am assigned to a backward DXC project. The lead is oppressive and bossy. There is no work-life balance and 9:30 hours of work is not enough for them. My probation period is going to end soon. Should I inform my Luxoft manager and tell him to change my project right now ? Or shall I wait for him to end my probation period ?
