What level? Seems like a 63 or 64 role. If 63, that’s competitive. If 64, you can wiggle upwards in all of the compensation components.

Do you know anything about level 67? I have a pending offer and they asked me for what I’d like. How much more in base should I expect vs this one above? It’s for a program manager role, nontechnical

Hi I have asked to be an advisor for a startup. Its in its very early stage pre pre-seed. Its looking like weekly strategy calls and possibly some executional work as well. Like building out a sales process and/or training sales and marketing team members (this might be 1-3hr a week of work).

They are offering 1.5-3.5%. — I am wondering if that’s enough.

In addition to this the founder mentioned that he would like me to consider becoming a co-founder.
