What does “it would be too high equity” mean in HR? I was asked by my previous manager what it would take to bring me back. I set my salary expectation as $67K, which HR offered me a lowball salary of $61K. I told HR I won’t return for anything less than $67K. I received a call from HR that they cannot offer me my salary expectation as it would be too high equity for them, so they are moving on with another candidate.
