I can’t think of any situation where having comp in bonus is preferable to base. For example mortgage qualification is easier to do on base pay

That's what I was thinking too! Thanks :)

There are no “guaranteed “ performance bonus. Only your base is 100% guaranteed

💯

Obviously base, even if TC parity is guaranteed.
Time value of money: would rather get your bonus paid out over the year rather than lump sum at Year end.
Not to mention that if you want to change companies without leaving money on the table you get locked into a very specific time
Always higher base. I'm only taking a larger performance bonus if it's much better TC.
Higher base for sure.
Bonus is taxed at 22% so while the TC might be same
You'll end up getting lesser money
Yep, slow years that "performance bonus" goes away in a hurry.
Higher base. Your 401k match and profit sharing if any is tied to your base salary.
Ceteris paribas base trumps bonus every time
There's no such thing as a guaranteed bonus. Thats a lie. Big one. Or you're naive.
