Deciding between 2 offers

I’m a new grad and I have an offer from Verizon 115k + 10k sign on. Another offer form startup 125k + equity + 10k sign on. Verizon offer is currently under background check. I did not sign an offer but gave a verbal confirmation. Can I re-negotiate the offer with Verizon now ?

Yes

Yes.. If you play your cards right (leverage your other offer without giving them any downside) But I would consider the startup offer... Greater the risk greater the reward. Sort out your immigration issues if any with the startup and see if they can accommodate. If you don't have immigration issues then startup is a great way to start your career (I interned at a startup). You will learn a LOT!

It’s more riskier to join Verizon now a days

Go with startup. VZ is dead career wise.

Go with the startup, Verizon is not the path to take right now.

You're starting your career, take the chance on the startup. Note is the time for you to be a bit of a risk taker. I agree with the comment above. It's a great way to start your career.
