Keep in mind that unless your role and skills are super niche, there are large numbers of already or soon to be laid off could be your competitors for the role.

MS also has been in "hiring freeze" mode for a few months, so anything that requires sending back the offer could add extra time to the process.

If you already have a job and it's stable, it might be worth it to push for a higher base salary, too.

Try asking for more base you can likely get another 10k
Signing bonus looks low, ask for 20k (might be split over 2 years)
Can try asking for more stocks as well. They doubled my initial stock offer
