Waiting on a formal offer for a strategy manager position at a mid-sized startup (IPO is a few years out). I’m not familiar with equity structure as part of comp, but curious on what I should expect? Is it better to negotiate on base vs equity?

It really depends on what series they are, employee count, location, etc. happy to talk more but generally if you believe that the company will exit, then equity may make more sense from long term perspective, if you just want the experience and don’t believe long term prospects of the company, then go for higher base
