Ask HN: Salary negotiation?

I have no experience of your situation but I think you should perhaps start by negotiating your level and title as an employee as part of the acquisition. I suppose that what's achievable is correlated to the size of your startup.

Whether you join as, say, Director or VP will have a direct consequential impact on your salary (you'll automatically fall within different compensation bands) but also on your standing within the company.

Thanks for the advice! Very helpful. Do you have any general tips for negotiating a salary?

Negotiating the title and then researching salary bands for that title probably will give you more insight into what to expect, once you have a better understanding of their bands, asking a number in top 10% of the particular band should be doable. If the number doesnt impress you, ask for a higher title.
