Is this a good offer for a mid level product management job at a fintech: £70k base + 10% bonus?

I have 6 years of experience, 2 years doing product management and product owner roles at pwc and then 1 year doing growth marketing (50% of role was delivering product improvements for CRO).

I have another growth offer for £80k base but am considering pivoting to product. I want to get a view on PM salaries and whether this offer is good or if there is realistic scope to get more.

Base seems pretty standard from what I’ve seen (you could get £100-120k with a proven track record but even that is hard to get from a start-up in London). I would negotiate for stock or performance bonus linked to tangible outcomes (eg number of users or next funding round) - most tech firms are open to comp deals that tie your success to the company’s

Sounds kinda weird that they can’t offer on options or RSUs… also then they sound much less like a startup so presumably they should pay like “not a startup”

I just lateraled as a first year associate in a specialized finance practice with one main partner and a handful of mid levels. The practice group is actively hiring laterals. But as the only junior associate so far, I don’t have very many people to ask for help, and I have a lot of questions about how to do my work, whether it’s okay to respond to an email in a certain way, etc. The partner is disorganized and requires a lot of follow up before he reviews or answers me. How do I manage this?

Are recruiters worth more than L&D specialists? We have a new recuiter that transferred in from another dept. & is already making more than me and has a higher comp range. We have same tenure & they have NO prev. recuiting experience. I should also add I have been helping cover recuiting in interim. I also help cover HR tasks, have my SHRM, 5 years of HR exp., and 2 degrees. Is the "value" for recruiters more than L&D? I feel a little taken advantage of, but want to know if I'm off base here.

So I accepted my offer from a new firm (where I am getting a 30k increase + benefits) and gave my two weeks yesterday but my boss was shocked. She wants to give me a counter offer tomorrow but ultimately told me she cannot give me the benefits the new firm is offering (health, dental, vision insurance, unl. PTO, 401k matching). Part of me already has my mind made up that I’m leaving but the other part has me thinking I might be making a mistake…. I am going to hear her out but IDK what to do!

Recruiter had no negative feedback from the teams . Has this worked out for anyone ?

My firm is really great. Mid sized regional firm. People are great, work is great. But I’m a junior and there are zero mid levels in my specific office. I’m questioning if I am getting the proper training as other juniors at other firms. The pay is good for a firm of this size with its presence, but feel like someone with my level of experience should be trying to get the proper training in order to succeed as I progress. Thoughts on what to do? I’m comfortable, but thinking about of the future
