Can I get your opinion on L5 offer (strategy ops, HCOL major city)?

Base: 184K
Target bonus: 28K
Equity: 81K Y1
Sign on: 25K (/4 = 7.5k Y1)
Total: ~300k Y1 (I’m amortizing the sign on)

“2nd offer” after l moved up slightly on base. Worried base is too low in this environment and is a 15% base cut on where I’m coming from. Not sure if I can push any more.

7.5 YOE, no MBA, ex consultant, work in mid sized pre IPO tech (current tc= 260k cash with, 700k equity (??). My WLB is also amazing.

any thoughts on if you think this can go any higher would be appreciated - or any tips? Or any advice on if you think (from a pure financial lens) if this is the right move

Solid L5 offer. Curious as to why you’re dividing your sign-on bonus by four? You’d get the full $25K on your first paycheck (minus taxes, of course). Your Y1 comp is actually closer to $320K.

@google1. You haven’t worked here long, have you? I’m making less than I did four years ago thanks to a killer equity package that never got refreshed. And their little “bug fix” to reduce equity at the high end of ratings means I’m paid $40K less stock *per year * at L6 EE than I was at L5SEE

Have you taken into account your annual equity refresh of about 50-90k (over 4 years)?

I don't see that in your year 3-4 estimate

It's in my answer

700K equity translates to $175K per year making your current comp 260 + 175 = 435K if I am reading this correctly.

How did you get 700k in equity. I saw 80k year 1 equity

Well-traveled people: what seem like the best major market cities to live in with access to great in-house jobs (FAANG, adjacent companies, etc.). Some markets seem like really fun places to live but seem insanely expensive (San Fran, DC). Others seem like great comp to cost of living ratios but you seem like you’d basically be in a boring suburb (Raleigh, etc.) or have major drawbacks (arctic weather in Chicago, etc.). Maybe I’m totally off base though. Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts.
