I’m curious if this is actually a low ball offer, or something like not-a-FAANG-or-SV-Startup-offer. Outside of The Valley salaries can be much lower, and outside the industry they are even lower. So, assuming US, are we talking 100k-ish or 50k-ish That said, definitely push back. I wouldn’t be surprised if you can get 20% more on a first offer, or you might negotiate other parts of compensation. How interested are you in the role? If it’s something that makes your days better then a pay cut might be worth it.
