Tuesday well spent

About to head to the HC for a role in ProdOps and Strategy in Mountain View. 4 YoE at MBB, no competing offers. Recruiter gave me a form that asks expected comp.
Levels.fyi has only PM salaries. I haven’t been told the level but expect it to be L4.
What total comp would you expect for this role? Any advice would be super helpful, as I’m a bit lost.

If the numbers they're citing seem fair, I don't get what the issue might be. I can only assume they've had people try to negotiate and they've lost patience with it. And as it's an employer's market these days, there really isn't any reason for them to put time into negotiating if they choose not to. If someone doesn't like the offer the next candidate in the queue probably will. That's just how the marketplace works.
I don't think it's necessarily a red flag if your comp numbers are aligned. If what they quoted you was lower than your minimum, I'd probably walk away, but it doesn't sound like that's the case.
I imagine that they probably would be open to negotiation in some circumstances, e.g. with a competing offer, or for a signing bonus, but I wouldn't count on it.
It depends! If it's in the name of pay equity, they've already taken your experience and credentials into account, and the pay aligns with a fair market for the role, then it might be a good practice. I don't love how they've presented it with what sounds like limited explanation, but it's not automatically a red flag.
I don't like that they came out the gate with that. I wouldn't say its that big of a red flag if the offer was fair but I would still be cautious.
Big Red Flag
Chances are they’d ask you for flexibility when it comes to your work like most companies do. So, if they’re not willing to be flexible, it’s probably not the company for you.

I don’t think it’s an automatic red flag but would definitely be good to go in eyes wide open. My company does this as well in the name of pay equity and I’ve heard of others that do the same
No different from a car dealer. If you don't like it, vote with your feet.
Maybe not like someone said in the comments that they may have gotten frustrated with so many candidates asking to negotiate. It does not give them the reason take it out on their new interviewer.
Companies are having to watch their budgets closer these days. I think it is good if they are reasonable numbers. Perhaps they are just being honest from the beginning to say this is all it pays. Personally I would rather they be upfront then pretend they will negotiate when they really will not or can't.
