Hearing a lot of friends get very high total comps because of RSUs and other added on bonuses. What’re RSUs and what companies offer a lot more money than base pay? I feel as though I’m making quite a lot for my age but almost all of it is base pay so I’m shocked to hear some people almost double their base pay with these other parts.

RSU is just equity/stock in the firm. Most large tech firms will give you a sizable equity grant to auto ent your comp. At google, you’ll find that most TC are 40% base, and the rest is a blend of equity and bonus.

What is everyones opinions on FOMO? I think it screams immature and a bit insecure. I used to have it so this may be hypocritical but I no longer do, I love staying in, making food, sitting in bed, & sleeping early. But, my friends still go out several times a week and are constantly posting their 'cool' lives on social media. When I tell my friends this, they say im being 'lame' or 'boring'. Ik they're joking but its annoying. I just want another perspective on this do I find new friends?

Additional Posts in Compensation

Starting to interview with startups offering equity (both are still private, but close to going public) but don’t know much about it as I’ve never had equity in my comp package. How is equity taxed? If they don’t go public before I leave, but my equity is vested, would I lose it? Any general info here would be greatly appreciated

I work remotely for a series A start up, TC is about $115K + equity. I work approximately 30hrs a week in a busy week, only meet with my boss and team once a week. I just got an offer for $140K + 4X the amount of equity I currently have… however, not sure it’s worth letting go of the incredible freedom and work life balance I currently have. Any thoughts to help make the decision?
