Got an offer to join a well funded startup of about 50 people at Director level. Salary is a bit less than I make now but ok. Equity is 0.25% - I was hoping for 0.5%. Reasonable or unreasonable?

What do the VC cap tables say is typical for your level, function, and #? What’s the latest post money valuation? What are holding/liquidation rights?

So many variables...

like

No valuation yet. Company says median offer for this job level and size of company is less than 0.2%. Standard vesting schedule (4yr with cliff)

How many rounds of funding?

One but financially closer to an A than a seed

No valuation? That means no VC funding, which means you should be getting full percentage points...

They gave me a number of shares and a strike price but I prefer not to share here

Well, I took the offer so let's see what happens!
