I have an opportunity working for my dream company but I was told my salary expectations were too high. I was using my last job as a reference since this is a lateral move (I was laid off a few weeks ago). Was I overpaid or is this company just cheap?

Former TC: ~140k (125k base + 30k sign-on paid over 2 years + 50k RSUs w/4 years to vest)

YOE: 5+ years total; 2 years as PM

Doesn’t seem out of line. What industry? What’s your degree?

Sounds reasonable to me. Probably a cheap company you were talking to
