No

Salary -> No


Overall comp -> Yes

The mechanics: For two years I was making more than my boss with a combination of additional stock and contractual large spot bonuses every ~6 months.

Why: I was coming from an institution that paid a lot more, they needed to be competitive or I wasn't going to bite

The risk: This additional comp is essentially positioned as a runway to promotion... and if you dont get promoted, your compensation will crater after two years

Direct message me, happy to have a detailed conversation

I don’t want to invite potential conflict by updating my landlord, my lawyer partner says the no pets clause is void in toronto anyway - but I worry about a bad landlord reference if they find out i.e come for repairs.
