Google TC: 470-500k Startup Offer: 200k base + 0.03% stock valued at 220k. Startup is 50 people.
The startup offer has very poor equity. If that’s the best they can offer then someone did something wrong (massive dilution?) and you should run. Shoot for 0.1-0.3%.
Can you give an example of the massive dilution? I'll DM you more details
Not Ramp but if the company raised their A or B round by giving away a big % to new investors, that dilution often comes at the expense of existing investors + employee equity pool (and sometimes founder equity)
YOE? Remote? Equity feels low
10 YoE and remote anywhere within US
Remember that's the value you'll need to buy your options at. They'll need to go up in value to actually realize gains. Very different from RSUs. Also they'll likely vest over 4 years.
Yes over 4years. That's the current FMV of the options per last funding round. Strike price is close to 0, money to exercise options is low enough that I don't want to bring it in here.
I've got experience at a number of startups. Made mistakes and learned a whole bunch up equity. DM me if your want to talk through any specifics.
You should aim for more equity, especially being employee 50 vs 500. Something closer to 0.1% - 0.3%.
