Hello reddit,
I recently received a job offer from an early venture capital startup company in the silicon valley area and am looking for advice on how to counter the initial offer. Initially I was offered 140k salary with 400k in stock options the vest over 4 years. I have not worked for a company that offers stock option comp before but as I understand it the value is often significantly less than what is advertised. As this company is early venture capital, I would expect significant dilution in the company stock over the next few years, which as I understand it, would lower the value of my stock options significantly. I am wanting to counter with a higher cash salary, say 180k +200k stock options, but I am not sure what is reasonable value to put on options. Does anyone have any data to show how the value of early venture capital stock options decay? I feel like if I come back with facts it may help me in my negotiation.
