How is life at ZS Associates?

Context: Left BCG as a PL (primarily focused on HC/TMT) to join Big Tech S&O, ZS recruiter reached out for an AP role so figured I’d take the call.

Got the offer Amazon L5 Cloud Support Engineer, what is ideal salary for this position.

Got an offer for SE III at a large tech company. Product I'd be working on interests me and I think I could grow more than in my current role.

Currently I make 180k base and have ISO/RSUs @ startup (60k/yr worth on paper, but won't be worth anything for a few years, if at all).

The offer is:
Base: $166,500
Target Bonus: 10% ($16,650)
RSU: 120k total (30k/yr)

Thoughts on offer? Should I counter?

Additionally there's a yearly target RSU bonus about equal to the cash bonus. Thoughts? 4.5 YOE

I am a sixth-year associate overseeing a second year. They are an exceptionally good associate. I am honestly shocked at the work product I receive and the way they go above and beyond.

I know they’re busy, but I would like to address this in a positive way. Any suggestions?
