Verbal offer from Facebook

I was verbally offered a position at Facebook today. My recruiter told me they are putting together an offer package and they are now asking my expected comp, bonus (bonus structure?), Stock requests, etc. What is a reasonable response? I don't want to low ball myself nor ask too much. For salary I gave a range with the low end being a 15% pay bump of where I'm at now. The rest I have no clue. Also, is it possible they pay off the rest of my lease that I just signed? Any help is appreciated. 7 yoe Texas Hardware engineer (analog/board) TC: 105K

Do not share your numbers. Ask them for the range. Tell them to put the best foot forward

Yes exactly don’t ever share numbers first. Look up almost any sort of salary negotiation video on YouTube

You can ask the recruiter for your level and the salary band for that level. They have to reveal that info (legally).

It's hard to say without knowing where the role is going to be as well.
