Has anyone successfully negotiated extra vacation days when getting an offer? Im happy for the most part with the salary but I am losing 10 vacations days. Health benefits are also not even near as good as my current job.

Yes several times in the past. But at my current company 100% of employees get the same vaca package regardless of tenure or seniority so I failed here lol.

I've had it on the table a couple times but it's been a pain do they just gave elsewhere.

I think it's standardised and baked into the software in a lot of places now?

Thanks everyone! I’ll see if they are willing to negotiate an extra week.

How many vacation days are you asking for?

If it’s truly universal/structural at the company, you can try to get the difference in $$$ and get it in writing you can take additional unpaid days

Hello, does anyone work as an auto underwriter for insurance? I recently got accepted for an internal job position and was offered $50k. I’m currently a claim processor making $20/hour so the offer is more than what i’m making but is low in comparison to the average salary for an auto underwriter in AZ (which is around $58k). I believe because the company knows how much i’m making they lowballed me. Any tips on how to navigate the salary negotiation and can u share ur salary ?
