I have about 11 years of ASIC Design experience. A startup finds me a good fit and wants to role out the offer but wants to know what my expectations are. When I asked them what is the range they are looking at for me they said Base Pay: 160k-190k, Equity (pre ipo) : 80k worth. Year on year appraisal would get me ( based on performance) more equity and maybe some cash bonus (10%-15%). Any comments/ advice on above numbers and what should I should ask them?
Equity is shit.
You mean equity is quite low?
