Have you ever encountered a scenario where you DIDN’T want to negotiate? I think there can be times where you are holding out for your top selection to get salary where you want it but a lower choice makes it hard.

Of course. Especially where you can see future promotional opportunities or where other perks are advantageous such as hybrid or remote work arrangements.

Riiiiiiight, so you try to get the lower one to negotiate up, and respectfully leverage the higher one. You might know if you would take their offer regardless, but they don't.

I've definitely turned down offers without negotiation because I knew they would never get to a place where I'd take it over others.

I've also taken offers without meaningful change from the initial offer because, well, it was a pretty good offer all considered.

How can I sell my 2 years of clerkship as valuable experience for corporate work? I would like to get credit for at least one year (at least in salary, if I can’t in seniority). I know for litigation they are more clearly valued and linked to that type of work, but I have reconsidered my interests and now am thinking of going into corp. However, I don’t want to feel like I wasted 2 years clerking (which I don’t feel like that, but I have to convince an employer of that too). Any help or insight?

Additional Posts in Salary Negotiations

Are there any fundamental differences between a salary negotiation during the start (applying for the job) vs. Salary negotiation during a performance review (you’ve been employed for x time and looking for a raise). I’m in the latter and wondering if there are any maneuvers that are different I should be doing.

I’ve been approached my by company that one of our large clients (who im currently project managing for) is looking for a consultant of sorts, and if they hire us, I’d be the first person asked to take on this consultant role. This isn’t something my company typically offers and would greatly change the scope of my role. Has anyone ever taken on a role like this? If so, were you able to negotiate a percentage of the consulting fee? Or was it a bump in salary during the project?

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!
