Most likely getting an offer from a big 4 this week (M level). A current client wants to bring me in, but I need SM level to meet my TC expectations. They're working on getting the role leveled up, but it hasn't happened yet. Would likely accept the client role over B4 as long as base is within $40k (higher bonus, better retirement plan, limited travel, and equity involved). Ideas on how to handle?

Be transparent about your timelines. Tell them that you need a decision by date X, or else there is a chance you'll be off the market. This way, they can rush their efforts with a few days notice, but you're not quite committing to being off the market just in case the new offer doesn't materialize.

What is the new offer?

Remains to be seen, some point this week. Best guess is $190k base, 10-15% bonus target; BS retirement program. Travel expected 25-35% of the time. I may be overestimating how willing they are to pay me, but I established high 1s (190k+) as my base expectation.

Other opportunity would likely be $160-170k + 15% bonus (reliably paid out at or above target) + 15% in RSUs that vest 25% each year over four years; 7% 401k match. Travel would be rare.
