Reading a Job Offer Beyond the Salary
Cash, equity, benefits, terms — how to price the whole package, catch the clauses that outlive the job, and compare offers with a table instead of a gut feeling.
Included free with All-Access — $20/year for the whole catalog.
What you'll walk away with
The four buckets every offer sorts into — and why the letter prints the least informative one in the largest font.
Equity translated: RSUs vs options, cliffs and vesting, and the reality discount that separates public shares from private paper.
Benefits converted to dollars — match, premiums, HSA money, PTO — the quiet $5-10k swings hiding behind similar salaries.
The terms that outlive the job (IP assignment, non-competes, clawbacks), the two-table comparison method, and the levers beyond base.
