Yes, any chance you can negotiate a Sr Designer title at least?

What is it before bonuses and stocks because neither of those are guaranteed?

Base salary is about as much as I’m making now

I figure it’d open more opportunities as well

Go with Tech. Advertising in 5 years...

Go with tech. In five years your base pay will be spent on Netflix and chilling while your tech stocks should have ballooned because of the hard work you and your team members poured into the company. Go create your own destiny. Good luck.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.
