I am a partner at a boutique healthcare / LS-focused firm that is rapidly growing due to PE buyout. I have a partner-level offer at a highly respected biotech venture creation firm (non traditional VC). I am strongly considering the offer though the overall compensation may be approximately 100k-200k less YoY. Looking for some perspectives on whether I am remiss to leave so much on the table.

Thanks for the feedback!

I agree. At some point if you're tired of being an agent, in my opinion, it becomes time to take the plunge to a more entrepreneurial / owner role

1-200k less than what? Makes a big difference if it’s 200k off of $1.5M vs $700k.

Which job are you more excited by? At some point you are making enough money.

~$800k

Meanwhile I just received a Director offer for a company with a 29% pay bump July 1. If Amazon or any other FAANG/large co gets back to me, is there an acceptable way to not burn bridges with new job and accept or delay start date with FAANG? Or fuck it just hop?

Hi ! Looking for advice. I’ve been with a company in BC for 2.5 years, started support role, promoted to smb AE a year ago. salary is 65k with uncapped commission.
