Hi everyone,

I have accepted an offer of 130k + 20% bonus and RSUs worth 150k.
Today, I got another offer from a startup of 160k base pay and stock options worth 440 k.

Has anyone negotiated an offer after accepting? I am supposed to join them next week.

Vesting period is 4 years with one year cliff and each quarter after a year.

As long as they’re both at-will companies, there is no recourse in choosing the more lucrative offer or negotiating more. You may burn some bridges at the company you accepted the initial offer from but that’s a personal choice for you to make. With that said, they may make a counter offer if it’s in their range and want to retain you.

I am an experienced Technical Writer with more than 10 years of experience working for Software companies on the East Coast. I have been exploring new career opportunities, given how hot the market is right now. I was wondering what a realistic salary / comp should be for someone with my experience.

I am targeting tech companies on both the East and West coast for remote roles. Is asking for a base pay of $150k + bonus + RSUs seem unreasonable? I am currently making low six figures right now.

How to negotiate salary when you’ve given them a range? I recently panicked and told the recruiter my expected range. If I get to the offer stage, I assume they will offer me the lower end of my range and of course I don’t want to sound ungrateful or greedy, but is there a way to negotiate to a little higher?

Btw I would be fine with the lower end of my range if offered, I’m just curious because I gave a range and not a hard number, is there a way to negotiate?

Started a new job back in January. Creative Director, a team of 7. Went back & fourth in negotiating. Offered 110k. Asked for 120k, settled on 115k. I even threw in that I was taking a hit with benefits, needing to pay 5k more as compared to my position I was leaving. That’s how I got it to 115k. At my annual I plan to address again, in partnership with the impact this position will have made this past year. What do other creative directors earn, if you don’t mind sharing? Industry av says 136k

Annual reviews are held September thru October at my current company. I started in July so I did not receive one last year. These reviews determine promotions, raises and bonus amounts.
