Gut check: considering an offer from a small cap pubco. Comp is slightly higher than my current Cravath scale comp as a 6th year. Does that mean the WLB will be just as bad as biglaw?

I’d take that. Hard to get your foot in house and once you are there, you can jump if WLB is not what you’d like. How much of the comp is cash vs equity?

like

That makes sense, thanks! It's mostly cash with about 30k in RSUs.

Don’t take it but please DM me the position thanks

That is a crazy good offer. Are you saying TC is over 400K or 500K? How did you find it?

like

Kind of. It's basically a small cap conglomerate, and with a tiny in-house team that means investment advisory will be part of the work.

I don't think it's quite analogous to going in-house at a PE/VC shop, but the comp does have me wondering.

Probably… what’s the role?

Is it misleading to just look at Total Compensation from a $ dollar value/ Total Compensation seems to be much more subjective than base salary in terms of its value. Some factors might be:

RSUs granted on dollar value or by # of shares & stock price trends
Vesting schedule
strike price on ISOs & delta between strike price and real market value

For instance, most of value in Amazon's comp seems to be granted in years 3 & 4, but it's well known that most people last only 2 years max there.
