Hashicorp might make it big when it IPOs but even if it doubles, your TC is still 240k. If you are in the bay, for 6 years+, you can easily find an offer that beats it. Ask for more stocks. Somewhere in the range of 220k over 4 years.

That makes sense but I doubt they can grant more stocks.

Can confirm. Little room on equity negotiation here. Definitely not going to double your initial offer by negotiating.

For remote it’s decent. For SF that’s bad

Definitely IPO <= 3 years. They have been granting RSUs that are conditional on a liquidity event within 5 years for at least 2 years. If these start expiring, there will be a mass exodus. Acquisition by one of the three major clouds unlikely IMO.

Equity negotiating has little room for hashicorp. But you can move to other places with cheaper living cost (or stay in outskirts of bay area). If you would like to study masters/mba or doing some traveling around the world while working this would be a great job to take on. If you want to chase the highest TC go elsewhere.

Was there a sign on bonus?

No such thing here. 😭
