My wife just got offers from Splunk and Confluent. All are front-end SWE roles.
Background: MS + 7.5 Yoe (small company in SJ)
Current TC: 220k

1.Splunk P4, Bay Area
Base: $195k
Bonus: 15%
RSU: $410k / 3 yrs
Sign on: $35k
TC: $360k without sign-on
Pros: Stable, WLB is good
Cons: No much upside potential

2. Confluent senior SWE, Bay Area
Base: $200k
Equity: 45k options/4years (strike price: ~$15, will be determined after joining)
TC: $370k (assuming target price $30)
Pros: much higher upside potential if going public
Cons: like all startup companies, unclear if it'll ever go to public

Questions:
1. What is the max equity we can get for Confluent senior role, with competing offer? How likely and when Confluent can go public?

2. For folks at Confluent, what is the current valuation? Recruiter quoted $10B, not sure if that's accurate. When Confluent will go to series F?

2. For folks at Confluent, how do you like working there? How is the equity refresh at Confluent? I heard you can only get refresh at 3rd/4th year or during promotion.
