Total Comp Components

Base (cash, certain), Bonus (target × performance multiplier, can be 0-200%), Signing (front-loaded), RSU (annualized over vest, depends on stock price), Match (401k), Benefits (health/dental/life).

Comparing Job Offers

Always annualize: divide signing by years to vest. Average bonus over 3-5 years (rarely hit 100% of target). Stock-heavy comp riskier (use 75% of grant value as discount factor).
