Hi I am requesting some feedback on the following offer. Both offers are for backed engineering roles Offer 1 Yahoo Total Comp: 187.5k (160k base + 15k joining + 50k cash incentives spread across 4 years) Location: Bay Area Bonus: upto 15% Role is completely remote but comp will decrease if I move to a lower cost city Offer 2 Series B AI-based startup (~50 employees) Total comp: 158k (150k base + 8k joining) + 0.15% ownership in stock units (4 year vesting period) Location Bay Area Bonus: upto 10% Role is onsite How safe is it to join a startup in the current environment? Also, will extra 10k make that much of an impact in the Bay Area? Thanks YOE: 3 Current Comp: 0 (grad student)
Yahoo still there..oh yeah, the mail
Finance sports
What’s the vesting schedule of yahoo? If it’s backloaded choose startup else yahoo!
No stocks, but 50k cash spread over 4 years
Didn't yahoo just lay off
Go to Yahoo and fix the account recovery. My 05' spam email account is nearly inaccessible. I seriously don't know what Yahoo employees do.
Make a poll
Is that an IC3 offer for Yahoo?
Not sure. Not mentioned in the offer letter
Yahoo will be laying off in the next quarter or two most likely. After the deal they signed with taboola, half of the inventory they manage will no longer be in-house. I would expect some significant layoffs in the ads business
I will be joining their revenue team. Would that be impacted by the ads as well?
It's hard to say. Their DSP is meant to stay in house but since I work in ad tech I've heard some whispers of big layoffs planned on the teams that run the native ads inventory
What’s the startup valuation?
I donot think your TC at Yahoo is correct
160+ 50/4 is 172.5k, first year is 187.5k
Don't forget bonus. First year probably goes a bit over 200k.
