Looking to jump into a start-up company from a mid-size consultancy firm in Dallas. The start-up company has base level insurance and my firm has amazing insurance. After running the numbers I’d have to negotiate up to 18K to get them to break even. Is it typically in the tech start-up world to take a hit on insurance and pay/benefits? The new gig is full remote and a lot of possibilities. Just had a kid so trying to see if I should take the insurance hit and keep going. Any thoughts?

No its not, negotiate it or walk away unless there is long term potential there.

Just graduated with Aerospace Engineering degree. I am interviewing for multiple positions at once with different companies. One gave me an offer and they want me to get back to them within 2 days. I still have other interviews scheduled and some for higher paying jobs (around 90k) What should I do?
I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.

Hi 👋🏻 Would love some support here - looking to build out a bonus structure for a Sales Engagement Mgr role - it isn't a typical sales role - this person will be closing deals but not necessarily securing leads. If they will be scoring leads, it will be organic via conferences, partnerships. Of course, we want to encourage and incentivize this person. Potentially giving then an extra 20-50k bonus potential. How do I build this out? Any suggestions or examples would be super helpful. Thank you!!
