$130k lower bound for negotiations in an industry role I'm interviewing for. How can I estimate upper bound for salary negotiations? Hint: Glassdoor / Google search has 0 insight.

Sometimes they give you the mid point, you could ask for that data point. Unfortunately the upper bound is not shared on purpose because how high they're willing to go is usually on an ad hoc basis and dependent on the individual who's being recruited.

Why do Big 4 firms interview you for a specific position level and then try to make you come in below that level...
