For experienced hires, PL level / engagement manager level, is there a sign on bonus? If so, how much is normal? Assume MBA + big city

It's negotiable based on your incoming situation. Salary and annual bonus % are constant across everyone. So if you come in from high salary and/or give up big annual bonus you would otherwise earn, sign on is the way to accommodate. Mine was 10k bc I didn't have the forgoing big bonus argument.

I got a 20% sign on bonus (on top of a 30% bump in pay), as an MBA holder in a big city.

Thanks. Very helpful comments!

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
