Equity vs more salary?

Equity means more salary for the more experienced

More salary. But that's me. I think that most companies which offer equity are actually not stable, and that's a way to keep employees when you don't have money to offer (or don't want to).

Maybe I would accept equities if it was worth like 10 times a fair pay rise, because equities always have risk.

Salary. Unless you know something about that company that means it is DEFINITELY going nowhere but up.

At my current job, I'd probably take some equity tbh. We're a small place working mainly with local brands but we're doing it better than any of our competitors, and have made a 100% profit on the previous year for 5 years running now.
