$250k Total comp. That's salary, bonus, equity, and benefits.

When I use total comp, I exclude non-cash benefits, and I think that's the normal use of the phrase. Health care, vision, dental, long-term disability, etc are all excluded.

I would include 401(k) or HSA matching under benefits (cash equivalent).

Agreed. I'd not consider those "non-cash benefits".

In the neighborhood of $250K, 401K and HSA match are just a few percent of comp generally.
