I consider a bonus that can go to zero to be zero, even tho most the places I worked met or exceded bonuses. They are a retention mechanism, not a bottom-line element.
Signing, whatever, I negotiate past stupid vacation bands, I would rather begin at 120/160/180 vacation hours a year than get a bonus.
401k should match at least 6%.

Holy shit. All those stupid math problems in school. Some kid finally had a use for them.
Don't throw money at a problem, throw monkeys. And in the weeks before the Olympics, programmers are using those same pods because they're sequestered in the back office for that final website build push.
God IT fucking sucks.
I considered going to that one, looked pretty cool to me. Just two problems, PI and no Staunch_Negrophobe around for next level partying.
You in SF? I figure they had an orgy afterwards
a gay orgy
SF, North, South, and now East Bay, I follow the contracts. Last I heard Staunch was working and living in SF. Figured we could drag Drifter Bee to an underground AZN club and have a laugh. Gays I know are way too bitchy for orgy, prefer inventing passive-aggresive drink names @ bar.
