I accepted an offer w Accenture ATL months ago (90k TC - 77 base, 10 sign, 3 bonus) w start Sep 26. I'm now looking to relocate to DC. I just got an offer from Slalom (103k TC - 95 base, 7.6 bonus). The base is higher than I expected, but was hoping for some sort of signing/relocation. Do I have grounds to negotiate for this based on my other offer? If so, how much can I reasonably ask for?

I'm also waiting to hear back from Capital One which has TC of 120k (96 base, 20 signing, 4 bonus).

Ignore D1, this isn’t actually a “thing”. Every hiring manager knows the “new hire” isn’t actually theirs until they get thru that door on Day 1.

As an example, awhile ago I was offered a role at an F50 corp and accepted the role after some minor negotiations. I was still in process at another company, but was still several weeks away from an offer. Offer came 4 days before I started and was superior in several ways. I called the hiring manager at the first company and said that I wouldn’t be showing up and explained the situation. He thanked me for calling and wished me well. That F50 company has reached out (same recruiter as original in a couple instances) several times to gauge interest in other roles. The original hiring manager is now with a FAANG and has referred me into a couple of roles I was interested in. Any rational hiring manager understands that you need to do what’s best for you. If they’re so self-centered and petty that they blacklist you for doing what’s in your best interest, is that someone you’d actually want to work for??

Fair enough. Seems petty in my view, but agree with your point that it matters how you handle it. If you ghost, then don’t expect anything positive. Let them know the “why”. If it’s strictly you’re chasing a bigger paycheck, probably want to frame it as something else vs saying PWC is offering more.

It’s poor form to accept an offer and keep
job shopping. Be prepared to be blacklisted by the company AND potentially by your university’s own program…it reflects poorly on you professional and your univeristy as well. Go back to Accenture and explain the predicament. They may be able to work with you on the numbers OR tell them you need to decline the offers.

Given the circumstances (timeline) and your change of mind, it’s perfectly acceptable to communicate proactively with the recruiter. I’d also suggest providing them some clear feedback about the lack of information and how that is also impacting your decision. Just don’t ghost them or wait until the last minute to “opt out”.

Students rescind offers all the time, while it's questionable in ethics, I wouldn't worry about it. There are thousands of new grad hires and you're just a drop in a bucket. Rescinding an upper management role would look bad, but as a student it should have little to no impact on you.

That said, I don't think you have any grounds for negotiation. The reason rescinding an offer won't hurt you here is because you're expendable at this point. And because you're expendable, they'll drop you as soon as you try to negotiate and tell you to have fun at your other job. Rarely are negotiations successful for your first job out of college. But you can always try

To answer your negotiation question, of course you can try to negotiate. They may not give you a move package - likely depends on how you framed the move to DC in the first place. Most entry level roles don’t have relo packages in the budget. But always ask.

I’m a recent graduate too and I can’t even get 1 offer… SMH, probably because I didn’t go to a target school

@VP1, yup! That’s how I got my interview at Deloitte at the end of the month!

Help, I made a mistake! A recruiter emailed me and I agreed to a phone interview. I did little research on the company and none on the salary… (I know my mistake) One of the first questions I was asked was about compensation to which I answered 45k-50k. (to quote the recruiter this is a “upper level entry level job”) the recruiter told me the base is $45,500. I got home, did research, and found the company paying the same position 55k on Glassdoor. Is it too late to ask for money?
