When I was searching I was one year more junior at MBB. Got an offer for director in BD for $140k cash and we landed on 0.5% equity from a post series A biotech. The firm was in RTP and I would have been the 20th employee. Biotechs are a little tricky to compare to tech start ups because the time to commercialization is so much longer and more expensive. Even relatively early joiners get diluted substantially so the equity is less likely to ever be worth 1000x the series A valuation.
