I remember a 2 1/2 years into my career as a software engineer, I was on an initial phone interview with a VC firm. The position was a lead frontend developer role, total comp was $350k-400k roughly - I had an unusual level of expertise in the primary tech wanted. During the phone interview, I asked some questions about work involved, work-life balance, PTO/holidays - the work sounded a lot and the engineer claimed good work-life balance. It didn’t add up. The kicker though was only 6 days of PTO. Needless to say, I passed on the role.
