Wouldn’t equity stake be a combination of the current value + your perceived future trajectory of the company + some sort of risk adjustment? Not sure what your other offers are but as an EM at McKinsey, I wouldn’t leave for anything less than $275K...

Lmao what tf are your data points

Salary seems reasonable for Pre-A, covers living expenses and while a step down in comp it's all about the equity here. If you believe in the trajectory at the company and that you can make an impact I would be looking for 1-2% (likely subject to dilution and vesting over 3-4 years) given your level.

Also — what is appropriate equity stake? Thank you!!

What’s your tenure OP? If you are 2+x, I would shoot for another ~125K in annual equity

FWIW, I have an offer from a billion dollar company that is similar base and cash bonus with an additional options equity component. If you can and because it sounds like you believe in the company, you should trade off cash comp for equity to whatever degree is possible
