Has anyone interviewed elsewhere to get an offer and then use it to negotiate their salary to stay at their current company? Wondering if it’s worth negotiating with current employer or should just make the jump?

Frankly I would just take the jump. Anytime someone is trying to use an offer to get a counteroffer, I think it makes you look bad, like you're giving an ultimatum. If they offer a counter of their own volition, then you can consider it. But don't try to pressure them into it

I think it's worth hearing them out if they give a counter, but the vast majority of the time, you should leave.

You should be ready to leave if you come with an outside offer. I got another offer with all intentions of leaving and when I went to put in my two weeks I was presented with a bonus and a raise and decided to stay. However, I didn’t go about it to squeeze for more money, it just worked out for me better to stay.

Interviewed for Deloitte S&A Tech Strategy SC and got a verbal offer for Consultant instead. I negotiated the offer to 120K salary and 10K signing bonus. I’m a boomerang with 4 years ERP consulting but this past year I’ve been doing DEI Consulting. Spoke with former colleagues who rejoined Deloitte and got a much higher offer for SC. How do I go back to the recruiter to negotiate further? I suggested that I’d probably sign but need time to think. Now I’d like to go back and request 140k salary.

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role at a company based in SF. I’m genuinely excited about the role and the company but we’ve yet to discuss salary. I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research. I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?
