I'm interviewing for a Director of Strategy role at a public company with annual rev of <$10B. Given its relatively small size in a highly competitive industry, I'm told there's a good chance that we could be approached for buyout by a PE Firm or perhaps another larger player. If that were to happen, what are some probable pros/cons? Also, financially, how much could I benefit as a part of the sale if I had regular stock grants RSU's given as a part of comp?

Equity isn’t going to be “eff you” money - maybe mid to high 5 figures. If acquired by a strategic, that role is probably gone post integration
