Would you change jobs strictly based on pay and the fact that yearly reviews are not in place, or would you consider benefits, bonuses and the fact that you have tenure in the company and work remote?

Definitely the latter.

Both are a consideration, but I promise you can find those perks somewhere else that will pay you more. Tenure is great but at this point you’re underpaid. It doesn’t hurt to passively look until you spot a great role and go for it.

I would consider bonuses, tenure, and being remote

I have been with the firm 8 years and every year it's a struggle to get the raise. No protocols or structure in place. Also, besides my years of experience, I obtained my AS Degree in Legal Studies in August, 2023 and registered through the Florida Bar. I think it's time to move on to opportunities that enable room for growth and salary compensation.

The latter but I would be actively trying to find something better.

Got an offer for SE III at a large tech company. Product I'd be working on interests me and I think I could grow more than in my current role.

Currently I make 180k base and have ISO/RSUs @ startup (60k/yr worth on paper, but won't be worth anything for a few years, if at all).

The offer is:
Base: $166,500
Target Bonus: 10% ($16,650)
RSU: 120k total (30k/yr)

Thoughts on offer? Should I counter?

Additionally there's a yearly target RSU bonus about equal to the cash bonus. Thoughts? 4.5 YOE

Made a career pivot to another agency. During the interview we talked about how it may start as initially a "step backwards" (pay/benefits) but has potential for more long term growth. First day was yesterday. Had no communication about when or where to show up, sat in an empty office for about half an hour before a couple people finally showed. No phone call or email. Sent an email to the founder, no response. I could easily get my old job back if wanted.

Zero credit or thank you for the work I did.
