You all are a wealth of knowledge and it is much appreciated. I am planning to write out what I'd like as a compensation package and then figure out my dealbreaker at each level .... and the travel is important to consider as I am admitted in NY as well as my homestate so could very easily be asked to work on matters there - i was thinking of requesting additional room etc if we are away for extended time so i can bring my kids ... MIL would travel so....
any other suggestions are welcome - my only experience is biglaw and in house gig and that had very little negotiating compensation.......
