Just started the interview process for a startup with a couple dozen employees to be their lead product manager. How would you approach equity vs. base comp split? Current TC is $250k so worried about taking a short term hit for long term gains.

I left Deloitte as an M2 and got a 55% increase in my base. Then I received RSUs as a signing bonus plus am eligible for a 10% annual cash bonus and additional equity that equates to 80% of my base.

If I were you, I’d want some increase in my base and would be looking for equity that is equal to or greater than your current annual bonus.

Yah C1 just flexing and not reading the Q. #deloitte

on the way to an interview this morning eating a sandwich. I walked past a homeless man who had a stray cat perched on his lap. He asked for a bite of sandwich to feed them both as they hadn’t eaten in days. I gave the whole sandwich over and headed off to the interview. As I got to the interview room there was a large executive chair facing away from me. The chair turned and on top was a mirror. When looking in the mirror I could see the cat. I am the cat. Truly inspirational when you work hard

I have been a PM at my company for 2 years now, with a years prior experience as associate PM. I got promoted before my certification, but was told if I did not get a PMP or ACP I would get my promotion taken away.
Received the ACP and have not seen a raise. Now we have a girl that is getting a 15k raise and going straight from Project coordinator to PM (with one year experience) and no certification. She will now be 5k less than me. If she gets CaPM she gets a 5k raise. Wong to feel slighted?
