What questions should I ask during interview about future plans of the company, stability? Is this a red flag? Prior spinoff solid F100 company. TIA

If purchased by PE they’ll be looking for exit (sale) in 3 to 5 years. If they sell to another PE firm you’re probably fine. If to another operating company they’ll consolidate tax departments so prepare to move or worst case have your position eliminated.

Thanks! This is really helpful although I think this one of offering significant more $$$ for the position than another one (30k) 😣

Not to confuse people, this is a subsidiary spinoff from a F100 company. Software industry
