As an accountant? More complicated work, better pay

Stocks

Private company pre-IPO stonks > already public stonks

It’s easier to raise capital, and a lot of it. If the owners want to sell the company, they can sell their stock on the public market in increments instead of negotiating with a private buyer. There are a ton of regulatory hurdles to become publicly traded, but once you’re there it’s much easier to transact.

What’s going on FB friends,

I am contemplating a move to industry working at a VC, Tax Director role east coast. Looks like it will be primarily overseeing compliance with some aspect of advising on structures etc. There is another tax reporting head above me.

The potential comp is the low 200k with a 10% bonus (still higher than what I am making). I feel this is pretty low for VC standards but maybe my standards are also too high. I have generally seen 25% bonus with carry.

Any thoughts?
