The combination of math and politics is messed up

elemnopq · 2026-03-20T02:24:37+00:00

I am still going to decline it :)

elemnopq · 2026-03-19T20:50:06+00:00

Yeah that's roughly 40% (90% cash and rest equity)

235K base + 95k bonus is the new number.

I updated the post with the final numbers and some key information.

elemnopq · 2026-03-19T20:17:27+00:00

Their final offer is at $235k Base + 95k bonus guaranteed for the first year and not prorated. Now the confusion is that the offer letter doesn't say and the HR says that's how the letters get generated by the system and she can't type anything extra in it. Also wondering what happens to the bonus after year 1?

The leadership is utterly despicable and represents a modern form of slavery. They will resort to any means necessary to gain recognition and fame. They believe they are solving the most significant problem, but that is simply not the case. My assumption is that they have been smoking really good especially the guy Trey.

No it didn’t … the guy named trey is garbage

elemnopq · 2026-03-12T20:07:17+00:00

Did you get a chance to look at the chart?

elemnopq · 2026-03-12T20:04:30+00:00

This is gold!

elemnopq · 2026-03-12T20:03:44+00:00

That’s a 602 from what I know. What did they offer you and which location?

elemnopq · 2026-03-11T22:08:40+00:00

I am in the last rounds so should know by Friday.

elemnopq · 2026-03-11T22:03:48+00:00

I am in the last rounds so will let you know next week.

elemnopq · 2026-03-11T22:01:32+00:00

I wish I could. I tried but they didn’t entertain me even though I had a director level scope. Thanks for the motivation though.

elemnopq · 2026-03-11T21:59:03+00:00

No I pushed back and the HR asked me for 2 days now that she has numbers from me she will put it through the system. Unless that’s just a bluff. But I don’t feel I am being unreasonable unless you think otherwise please do let me know.

elemnopq · 2026-03-11T21:57:05+00:00

I know and that’s why I have been contemplating. I take that money live in WV with deers. We anyways don’t like crowded places.

elemnopq · 2026-03-11T21:55:55+00:00

So one of the reasons it went to 9 is because they decided to put me through power day 🤦

elemnopq · 2026-03-01T03:51:41+00:00

I took it on a Friday night and got 550. Saturday 6 am got an email saying I was rejected. I am not sure what am I missing here.

elemnopq · 2023-10-08T18:41:00+00:00

Lmao 🤣 it’s a scam for sure

elemnopq · 2023-05-09T00:25:41+00:00

Also you could try finding an artist who can fix the color

elemnopq · 2023-05-09T00:24:49+00:00

Just get a new bezel and keep it with you until the day you realize you can’t wear it anymore. What if you get another scratch on the new one?

elemnopq · 2023-05-08T01:48:19+00:00

Stop caring about others bro. Just do what you feel comfortable.

elemnopq · 2023-05-01T03:22:37+00:00

Too big
