Zscaler offered me position in Amsterdam for senior Qa. Offering 85k base pay and 20k equity for 4 years. I am 12 year experienced, feel lowballed with the offer.
How much can be negotiated here, what would be a good number to check with HR team?

When I was researching salaries about 12 months ago, the range for senior QA (I’m assuming more QE in that you do some automation and CI work) was between 105,000 and 150,000. So your offer does seem to be on the low end of things.

I’ve always worked remote. Personally, I think location should have little impact on salary (but that’s a different discussion). I’m talking salary, not TC.

I got LOTS of lowball offers when I was looking 75,000+ range. But those places either raised their offers or were eliminated from my search early.

I got offers for Organization Change Management consultant role fro PwC SDC and Atos Consulting.

If anyone has worked in these two roles/practices/companies, it would be really helpful in making a decision. Based on my understanding:
Pros for Atos:
- Largely front end consulting role focused on the APAC GU
- Smaller team size compared with PwC SDC
- Emerging practice

Cons: typical IT company culture

Pros for PwC SDC: established practice and the PwC brand
Cons: large team, backend
