Compare job offers side by side
Pay, equity, benefits and work terms of each offer over 4 years in one sheet, with the main trade-offs.
- You start it: When you start it
What it does
The task
Read the offers in these documents: offers. For each offer, list the base salary, the bonus, the equity with its vesting and strike price, the benefits, the vacation days, the office days and the notice period. Calculate the total pay for the next 4 years, with the equity at zero and at the price of the last funding round when the offer gives it. Check each company's Glassdoor reviews and recent news for layoffs. Put it in a new Google Sheet, and write the 3 largest trade-offs in plain words.
- It works in Google Sheets and Glassdoor, in the workspace you pick, and signs in with passwords from your Cuiar vault.
- It runs once, when you start it.

2 offers, totals for 4 years
| Item | Pinegrove Health | Orbis Media |
|---|---|---|
| Base | 76,000 EUR | 80,000 EUR |
| Bonus | 8% target | none |
| Equity | 6,000 options, strike 1.20 EUR | none |
| 4-year total, equity at 0 | 328,320 EUR | 320,000 EUR |
| 4-year total, equity at the last round (4.50 EUR) | 348,120 EUR | 320,000 EUR |
| Vacation | 30 days | 26 days |
Trade-offs: Pinegrove pays more only if the bonus pays out. Orbis cut 12% of its staff in May 2026.
Orbis wants 3 office days a week, Pinegrove 1.
