Is the BU worth 1B or is it the company as a whole? In a similar role personally and wouldn’t do it for one of my company’s BUs, just CEO. Think pay is in line though. I’d have an understanding of next steps/roles after this one before saying yes. Not a long-term role typically by design

Role is awesome so far, but it is demanding and my time isn’t my own

300k + equity? Do it lol

I have 8 yoe pre-consulting and interviewed for roles around $500k TC so the comp is not a “just take it” number for me

I got an offer at Nokia, and my new manager said that she wanted to put me in the higher salary bracket however the HR insisted that we lowered the range.

Switching from commission to salary!

I’m considering a less sales-oriented role that doesn’t pay commission. The new role will have a higher base but lower overall earning potential.

What % haircut should be expected? As an example, if I make 100k (base + commission) today, would it be realistic to ask for 90k (10% cut) + equity to make up the difference?
