I'm surprised this one hasn't been posted yet, because it can be a huge signal:
- Is there a plan for a liquidity event? or
- Does the company have a liquidity event target?
And some follow-ups, if so:
- What date is it planned for?
- What are the conditions the company is planning around?
It's important to know what a startup's goals are. Some exist purely for a liquidity event down the road, while others want to "change the world," etc. Taking a job with a startup that was targeting liquidity in a year or two means you have to balance your offer very carefully and understand your compensation package.
