Any tips on negotiating offer without a competing offer? Going to mention unvested RSUs, loss of remote work, and unvested 401k match. What else?

There’s no real threat of you leaving without an offer… especially in this market.

You’re right, I was thinking you were negotiating at an existing job.

If you’re just negotiating an offer, then it’s just a matter of pushing for what you think they will pay. Almost every company doesn’t publish their absolute ceiling as the high. If the offer is a step down from where you were at, or from other roles you’re applying to, mention that.

I’ve gotten sign-on bonuses to help make up for unvested RSU’s I was walking away from

They can match your ask, if it is in their range. Several companies are not transparent in their benefits, salary. But it is worth to try.

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.
