Am I crazy for trying to negotiate about 10% of Total Comp after getting an offer that is 83% higher than my current TC?
Moving from a startup to IPOed company. Not being hard on negotiation at least I don’t think? Asked if they can get me to a higher range and if it comes up I told them I’ll sign ASAP.

You know your worth and what the job entails better than anyone else on here. That said, don’t turn things sour by pushing.

Yeah, in general I hear RSUs have more flexibility. Maybe they’ll move that.

Depends. What’s current TC and what’s new one.

Hi fishes, i have 6 years of work experience .HR round for pepsi is scheduled for tomorrow for L5 role. Current package is 7.6L including variable. How much should i ask during salary discussion?

Can all technicians share if you're registered or certified and how much you're currently making? (Hospital, retail, independent, etc.) I'm transferring from retail where I'm underpaid to a Hospital trainee position and I don't know the pay range or what I should ask for. I'm registered already and this position requires it within 1yr. But I applied because I don't have Hospital experience. I want my compensation to reflect I'm already registered.

I just found out that a new person at work that has been with us at the hospital for about 2 months max is making more than I am by quite a bit. This person has about 19 years of retail experience and can only work 2 shifts with us. I have about 7 years of of hospital experience all at the same place and I’m able to cover any shift in our pharmacy, super user for all of our systems, trained in our PN iv room, oncology iv room and our main iv room, also RIVA system admin. Do you think it’s fair?
