Take it. I think it's a great offer.
I know some good people at the company there. Take it, Chicago is not expensive (but getting to be)
Have you seen Uptake's Glassdoor reviews?
Sounds like a great salary for senior dev. I think higher than the sr. Devs I work with.
5000 stock seems low, I would find out the strike price before accepting to ensure the tidal value and percentage matches your mental model.
Wow I'm just getting fucked right now if that's the case
5 thousand options is pretty high. $150k for a senior, non-management role depends on the type of dev work you do but is definitely on the really strong side in Chicago
Actually I guess there was a split. 5k options is still good but not as impressive. Given that, 150k can be either low or high depending on the type of dev work you specialize in. However, you should be asking more about whether the team and work are interesting and if you are happy with the offer vs measuring against others.
What do you consider a good percentage?
Yes, I have not got any info about the strike price or other vesting details
