How long do you wait for a recruiter to reveal an actual salary range to you? This recruiter said “about the same as your current salary but up to 40% bonus” and is not giving me an actual number range. There’s like 4 interviews to get through so I don’t want to do all that only to get low balled in the end. I don’t consider the bonus as a part of my comp because of the contingencies.

You should know immediately. Also you shouldn't be revealing your current salary, as it isn't relevant. What if you're super underpaid?

Oof. Well now I know what to do next time 😅 thanks for the info!

During interviews, I always find it difficult to determine if a firm is legit or if they are just putting on a show. I know that’s not unique but I always do research and it ends up being a gamble.

What’s going on FB friends,

I am contemplating a move to industry working at a VC, Tax Director role east coast. Looks like it will be primarily overseeing compliance with some aspect of advising on structures etc. There is another tax reporting head above me.

The potential comp is the low 200k with a 10% bonus (still higher than what I am making). I feel this is pretty low for VC standards but maybe my standards are also too high. I have generally seen 25% bonus with carry.

Any thoughts?
