Got an offer from a FAANG tech co, in customer success (executive level) primarily focused on local strategic accounts (limited travel)

15% increase in base from here, over 500K equity over 4 years, no sign on bonus

Good position here so far, year 3 director, full support from Partners to be pushed into partnership direction next year.

Should I consider or not?

Partner isn’t worth it. Go FAANG.

like

I would take the FAANG offer. Given partnership is a few years away, you never know what might change between now and then..take what you are getting now if it aligns with your interests.

like

I would stay and make partner. I would use the faang offer to negotiate a better base. Seems like they are really invested in your growth and development and they would likely match your offer.

My $0.02.. Go FAANG. We get into a tunnel thinking about partnership when these roles can offer a way better WLB for an equitable comp. Hey, if you want the title (and if that matters) power on through. You need to think 10 years from now if you are a partner versus in your FAANG trajectory, how happy will you be..

like

One is guaranteed, other may or may not happen. IMO FAANG is always better, unless partnership is your career goal.

Sounds like a good offer but depends on the number of years of work ex you have, location of the offer, and equity refresh cycles at the firm

17 years, work experience L7 role, still need to understand refresh cycles.. but current vesting is split across 4 years (25% each year)

Agree w above - get pship. If FAANG co didnt work out for some reason, you'll always have pship on your CV

Got it. FAANG not a bad option in short term - seems to be covid downturn resistant so far, consulting firms could be under pressure

Location/will you have to relocate?

Nope, no relocation

You could stay at the beast you know than the one you don’t.

OP, I’m actually looking at something similar. Would it be ok to directly chat about your experience?

I’m struggling at the moment to gauge how much I should be getting paid in my position as i feel I’m heavily underpaid for the work I do, which includes managing digital marketing operations across 12+ countries, manage the studio/creatives plus lead on any campaigns and strategies, etc. I’m also remote UK-based although my company is international. So what do you feel a fair UK wage would be for the role? I love my job/team but the stress isn’t worth it for me atm. Thanks in advance!
