Sounds like Wells Fargo.... if you’re tenure now probably not worth it

smart

Both, and the risk of a near term restructuring. Glad to hear it’s not wells.

Obligatory reminder to compare COL if you're moving from somewhere else to SF. The differential can be insane if you're not aware.

I already live in SF, make 95 base right now with wide range of bonus potential based on performance

Seems low. I would wait for a better offer before jumping in today’s climate

SC2, you do understand the current COL in SF, right?

That actually depends on your risk appetite and your financial situation. Do you have dependents? Do you have a mortgage or loans? Do you have plans to spend a large amount of cash in the future for a down payment or car or something? If you’ve got the liquidity to cover 6 months of expenses then sure go for it.

How did you swing that offer at that level of YOE? Also, sounds like mom and dad have your back so just do it. 125 in SF is not that much, FWIW.
