Thanks for the replies - Yea salary is reasonable for the area. If you've got any other advice on things to consider while choosing a startup, please let me know (either here on drop me a line at wwq222@gmail.com). Thanks!

Hi, I'm thinking about joining a former YC company, and it just so happens that this company is the first startup that I've seriously considered, so I don't have many data points for comparison. I could spend the next 3 months interviewing with other startups and collect data points, but I'm thinking there's got to be a smarter (and faster) way. Therefore, if anyone can offer any advice on what's the market price for a strong mid level developer at a VC funded ~10 employee startup nowadays, that would greatly help me out.

In fact, the only part I'm concerned about is the equity offer. Right now I'm being offered ~.5%. Is that even in the correct ballpark for a company of this size?

Sorry if I'm breaking any unspoken laws or courtesies by asking a question like this, but it's one of the few ways to get context for my offer within 48 hours...

Thanks!
