Hard no. You will come out making way less than your current comp after all taxes and lack of benefits are considered

Client seems super nice and the stress level is much much lower

Doesn’t seem like a deal??? That’s 200k max at 50 weeks. Minimal vacation. Extra taxes. No benefits or retirement

Not worth ... may be at 150$/hr but not at 100. U'd lose insurance, vacations, Promotion/Bonus along with most important factor, Stable Job.

Interviewing at a dream company, and right from the first interview the recruiter told me we are way off on salary expectations. This was a little bit expected, as the role is requiring a few years less experience than I have and also in a much cheaper market. They already told me the salary range during this first call, but wondering if they like me enough and I get an offer, how I might approach negotiating for more. I would be making much less than I do now, but it is a dream company.
