I am considering joining a FinTech company as a Manager. Currently, I work at a Big Four firm as a Manager, earning a base salary of $185K, plus any bonuses I receive. I am located in a high-cost-of-living area.

The FinTech company is offering me the following:
- $180K and $190K base (yet to be finalized)
- A 15% bonus on the base salary
- $ 75K in RSUs (with a three-year vesting period)

Do you think this is a good offer, or could I get a better one?

Can you be more specific as to the type of fintech? If you’re saying Mastercard, Visa then no, it wouldn’t be a good move. You should be getting at least a level higher. But if you’re talking about a company like Stripe then a move to manger role would make sense, but then again I expect a company like Stripe’s compensation to be a lot more than what you quoted.

Depends on your area

My dilemma… I am an injury adjuster at a carrier experiencing high inventory that’s barely manageable. A competitor offered a higher salary and manageable workload. BUT, I would like to get into underwriting. I applied for UW position w/ a different carrier and they’ve made an offer. It’s lower than my current salary and significantly lower than what I’d make by taking the first offer. Do I take the high salary and stay in claims or go for UW in hopes it will be best in long run?
