About Job Offer Comparison Calculator
What this misses
Career growth, brand value of company, manager quality, work culture, equity upside potential, healthcare quality, retirement plan generosity, PTO. Money is not the only factor.
How to value equity
Public stock: face value. Private stock: heavily discount (50-80%). Pre-IPO startups: count it as zero unless you can model exit probability.
4-year vesting math
Equity is usually granted as a 4-year vesting block. Annualize: $200k RSUs over 4 years = $50k/yr. Cliff after year 1 is standard — be aware of vesting schedule.
