Thoughts on reneging an offer?
I’m about to accept an offer from a pre-ipo unicorn for 66% pay raise, but may have an offer from a big tech next week for 100% pay raise. The offer from big tech is not guaranteed as I still have the final round to go through but I’m curious about the consequences.

Just the moral regret of saying no to something you have already said yes to. Other than that no consequences. May be you will burn some bridges but 40% is too good to not accept. All the best. Hope you get the tech offer.

Definitely look into the non base comp for each offer.., the numbers get a lot bigger 🙂

Just reneged for around the same numbers and couldn’t be happier.

My advice: If roles are equal, keep it objective. If they want to come back and entertain a match, let them do it. Free market baby.

Are you already including equity and RSUs in your % calculation?

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?

Looking for a little help on developing a website prototype to test (app too if possible). I need:
