I got offered a role near Philly as a agentic AI researcher in STEM. The offer is:
- $155k base
- 20% targeted anual performance bonus
- $10k sign on bonus
- $25k stocks vested over 3 years.

The year over year increase is at least 3% or so I’ve been told, and there are other benefits such as 401k contributions etc that I haven’t check out. This sounds like a good offer to me. But I would appreciate y’all input on it. Got >10 yoe in STEM (PhD level) but about 3 yoe in AI (LLMs workflows).

Yes, very interesting work; honestly looking forward to it.

That is a great offer honestly. I would still try to negotiate a little higher base so you don't leave any money on the table but overall, it is a good offer.

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

I have got 5 offers till now:
IBM (15.9 + variable)
Infosys 16
Fidelity 23.5 + benefits
TCS 12.5
DTA 16

Which should I choose,also can you give any tips for negotiation with IBM.

I have 1 month of time left and currently preparing DSA for product based MAANG. Any suggestions for further action plan would also be great.

Just to note, this is about a 25% increase compared to what I am currently making.
