Offer Evaluation, need advice.
Received an offer from a series E startup for an SWE role: Base: 130K Stock Options: $31K Bonus: $0 YOE: 2 in QA, 1 as a SWE. Offer explodes this Wednesday. Also, just finished a technical phone screen w/ LinkedIn this past Friday, so Im waiting for my onsite to be scheduled. Not really sure how to proceed, all advice is welcome. Location: SF Thanks in advance.
Ok for QA with 2 YOE
Call SWAT before it “explodes.” Another overused silly and annoying jargon enjoying its 15 minutes ... sigh! Anyway, if the base is 15% higher than previous TC then join.
Thanks for your help. Very insightful
Not bad for SWE but I'd negotiate. Also, I tend to be wary of companies that give exploding offers (if it's a solid startup, they should feel confident you will take their offer). Because this is a startup, make sure to ask all the questions about the stock: https://blog.wealthfront.com/stock-options-15-crucial-questions/ ~2.5 YOE Base: $133k Bonus: $5k Stock: $60k per year
