170-230 base with 100k-200k equity per year and maybe 10-20% bonus that I wouldn’t put too much value into. % very low at this stage. On the equity part you’ll likely get ISO vs. RSU at last round valuation so on paper it may be worth 0 now.

They will give you some explanation of potential value at IPO…i would do your own personal valuation and assessment. I’d personally want at least 2M upon exit minimum.

As an early PL may get lower end but it is a good market so push for higher.

Really helpful - thank you so much! 🙏🏼 For clarification, 100-200k equity is ISO value based on latest round (Series C in this case) stock price?
