I would just be upfront about it. Going somewhere else because they’re paying you more is absolutely a viable reason to leave. Plus, they might counter and offer to raise your salary, so you could potentially get your pay day and not have to go through the pain of onboarding elsewhere. Expect them to throw around buzzwords like “culture” and “experience,” but any reasonable person would understand someone wanting to be fairly compensated. And if they’re jerks about it, well you probably didn’t want to keep working for them anyways.

Just be honest. If it’s money - than just state that. See if they counter

Hi All. I have a good job offer but I'm wondering whether I should negotiate comp. I made it clear from the beginning what my target for base comp was which is ~$10K over the top of the posted salary range for the job. I also said that I was comfortable proceeding with the interview process despite the top of that range being lower (somewhat weakening my position for later I suppose). The offer is at the very top of the range. Bonus is 5% less than what I get in my current job. Negotiate?

I’ve been at a job a year and have what I would call a very toxic manager. When I first started they were very nasty to me making comments about my appearance, my character and other inappropriate and mean things. I let them know how this made me feel and they stopped however I continue to notice how manipulative and condescending they are. My mental health is at a low. We are about to be at our busy season but I want to leave so bad. Should I wait until after the busy season or leave asap?
