A comment on How Not to Bomb Your Offer Negotiation. Parent comment
"He didn't get a 250k salary, that was total compensation, largely RSUs on a standard vesting schedule."
Yes, and he purposefully chose (as he describes) the more "illiquid" of two offers.
"He also donates 1/3rd of his pre-tax income to charity."
Admirable and very commendable (I can't stress how much I really respect this about him), but irrelevant.
"If you spend 15 minutes talking to him, he'll leave an impression."
-- the definition of "charisma"
