hi. current tc- 210 seattle area offer- 240 / 75 over 4 years with 1 year cliff blah blah blah in downtown sf they are currently valued at 3bn and they gave me a load of bullshit about how this is a 30bn company etc 75 still seems crazy low- is my gut correct on that or is this a reasonable rate. i would be a senior engineer, probably the 150th total employee, 5th in the branch they are building
Mmmm. I mean at a large tech company 75k is what a PM might get as RSU. Non big player, is it really that low? It’s not real money until it vests anyway. And startups have large turnover. Don’t get stuck not getting any RSUs when you end up not liking it. Then you’ve missed a whole year of $
What would you push for in this case
With startups I go for higher salary and extended vacation time because you will work your ass off. More RSUs is a perk, ask for it but get your base at a place where it’s worth it. Or you’ll be looking in 6 months.
How many stripe are there? Do you really believe that?
I’m sorry?
Stripe is only 35b...
