- isuckatcoding 8y agoWhat how did your salary jump so much between 24/25? Bonuses? Or base?
- salaryanony1 8y agoNew job, good negotiation skills. $225K was base. IIRC, I negotiated a bonus (not included in the 225) that was like ~30K when then next funding round closed.

- 1k 8y agoThat’s a really great company to pay SF rates while working remotely. Wish I could find one like that.
- bronxbomber92 8y agoWhat industry were you working in when at the Series B and Series C/D companies? Do you feel like your salaries at those companies represent the going-rate your colleagues also received?
- salaryanony1 8y agoSeries B company was a B2C mobile app. Series C/D company was B2B startup.
- bronxbomber92 8y agoWhat did your day to day look like?
- beambot 8y agoYou paid yourself $150k in your first year as startup founder? Huh.
- salaryanony1 8y agoYeah, weird situation, good business opportunity + good funding. The barnacles that come with a high income means that it's hard to cut back. I would have trouble living on less than this.
