Negotiation: Ratio for Exchanging Base to RSUs
Jul 1, 2019

I'm negotiating an offer from a pre-IPO company that I think is going to do really well in the next few years. In order to maximize my total compensation and bet on their success, I want to negotiate a lower base pay in exchange for much more equity.
What's a reasonable ratio for doing this... -2 base for +3 equity? Or more aggressive?
EDIT: to be clear, this company is profitable and is close to IPO, not some unknown untested business.
