Received an offer at a Saas startup for 100K + options for a Strategy and Operations role in NYC and I have 2YOE. The company is expecting to IPO next year and I will be working 50+ hours on average. Am I being lowballed on the offer?

For 2YOE? No

Yes - lowball. If they’re thinking of IPO in 2 years, they’re probably series D or E which means they have enough cash to pay you a great base. You can def get a base hike of 30-40K easy. Good luck!

At 2 YOE you should be making 200 base and 100 equity tc 300. Youth is power. Anything less is offensive.

Facts

Options will probably not exceed 10K a yesr

Would go hard on negotiating options if expected to IPO. base really really depends on the startup

Had only one call with my TL in first two months. Few weeks later, on workday I noticed that my TL got reassigned. Contacted him and have setup regular catch-ups. He dropped a bomb that he is leaving and I will be reporting to partner. Partner is time poor and no feedback is offered. This is my first consulting role and I feel I am not receiving enough support. Few people are helping to learn the ropes but WFH has exacerbating the problem. How do I get a TL to receive pointed feedback? PwC

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago.

I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.

Hey everyone, I need some advise. I've been interviewing for a company for the last 4weeks. The salary was originally discussed as (say Xk) but the recruiter I'm working with said today that they "realigned the goals" and brought the salary down to (Xk-10). I wasn't even okaay with Xk tbh, and now they've gone ahead and reduced it by 10k! I'm attending the final round on Friday - do y'all have any tips on how I can negotiate my salary to X+10 and let them know that this is highly unprofessional?
