Hello RSM coworkers! I am thrilled to be moving to RSM into a Scheduler roll. I just found out yesterday and want to be as prepared as possible in the next steps.
So here are my questions.
How long does the background study take? I'm guessing admin staff have a study that is faster and less complicated than someone in Tax ect.
When training at home what did you need that wasn't supplied by RSM? My home office is well stocked but I want to be as prepared as possible.
Thanks in advance!
11/27 Check In 🙌🙌 What’s everyone up to today?
Hi everyone,
I am looking for someone to take over my 2Bed/2Bath lease in 420 E Ohio (Streeterville) starting in November (flexible). The apartment, the building amenities and neighborhood are truly AWESOME, but I got a new job outside of IL and will be relocating. Message me if interested!

Title doesn't mean much. What are your responsibilities?
Head of M&A at Citibank is different than at StartupBank
I do everything and started from nothing. I was the first Corp dev person hired. Lead every deal at every deal stage from origination through integration, set up all policies and procedures, developed templates, hired 3 folks and I run the deal team for all M&A for the whole country.
A. Why are you just asking this question AFTER the company went public and not when you got hired, B. How much impact have you personally had on that success in 9 months with a unique skill set, C. Why did you take the job if you were really that underpaid? Surely building this experience or something else about it was beneficial to you, so doesn’t mean you can’t ask for more now, but don’t lose sight of the bigger picture / long game and ruin relationships over minor amounts, D. Make sure you enter the negotiation calm and not taking things personally, E. Consider whether you are really ready to walk away / your alternatives before making demands, F. Post-IPO equity isn’t going to be a meaningful amount in basis points, so consider what you want your total effective comp to be and associated trajectory / risk for the specific company
Thanks for trying to explain thing to me, but this doesn't help answer my question even in the slightest. Everything you are asking about, I'm way past and already have a firm grasp.
I would have made sure I got equity especially if I felt way underpaid. I would already feel screwed over. They owe you nothing because it’s not written in the contract!
Apparently we were too close to public announcement? My boss, the Chief Growth Officer was told the same story and even he does not have equity.
If head = one below C-Suite, would say anywhere from 0.05-0.1% of the company is reasonable (i.e, $500K-$1M for a $1B company)

Get an offer somewhere else…then start renegotiating
It actually does kind of. If you get another offer at a startup that will give you equity, you can show your current employer and say I’m going to leave if you don’t give me what you said you would. It at least gives you options.
What’s your YOE?
