I got an offer from a top 5 bank with the following details.

92k base salary
10% target annual bonus
No signing bonus

I am going to counter with 100k and 8k signing bonus and provide them with my reasoning. The salary range on the job posting is 84k - 99k - 109k. Is 8k more insulting? Should I ask for 102k? The recruiter told me they are targeting low 90s when we first started talking, fyi. I also heard this company doesn't do signing bonuses so we will see about that.

Thanks

I suggest sharing your counter offer over the phone and follow up with an email. Make sure you have all your asks together in one request: base salary, bonus, sign on, pto, rsu or stock. If you want $100k, you may want to ask for $105k and let them work you down.

Thank you for the advice!

Also, is using the below language as a reasoning why I want a higher salary appropriate?

"Lastly, I closely reviewed the benefits package and have a great understanding of total compensation (base salary, bonus, 401k match, pension, etc.) for this role. After fully calculating total compensation for this offer vs total compensation at my current employer, there is not a large gap. This factor also went into my counter offer above. "

I would just say .... After researching market compensation and talking over with my family, I am looking for a TC of xx base, xx bonus, etc. I wouldn't bring in that the gap between your current pay is not large enough. If anything, I might say to them that I'm excited to have the opportunity to work at abc company but I can't take less pay. I'm looking for ....
