About to enter salary negotiations with a potential employer. Trying to figure out my market value to see what I should shoot for. 4 YOE, S&O, HCOL, focus on growth strategy and product management at D, top 10 school for undergrad. What should I be aiming for? Any other negotiating advice would be great too, thank you!

Just a side note but no one cares where you went to undergrad 4 years later. All about your experience at this point

You'd be surprised

Wide range based on technical skills, employer, etc but I’d say you should be shooting for anywhere from 110-160.

Accepted an offer of employment with a mid-sized firm to begin in a couple of months. I’ve always wanted to shoot for big law but haven’t had the opportunity thus far. Overall, I accepted because I didn’t want to take the opportunity for granted in addition to the uncertainty with hiring due to covid. Would it be an issue to shoot for a big law opportunity in the interim? I know how this looks and sounds, so I definitely don’t want to set a precedent that I deal in bad faith.
