I usually check out what other companies are offering for similar roles in my area. Check out the company’s website/job listings to get an idea. You can also post your basic qualifications, your location, role you are being offered and the suggested salary on here and see what others in your field think.
Check out Glassdoor for the average salaries for your area and YOE and go from there. As long as you give a reasonable number and aren't a complete pain to negotiate with, I don't think you have any reason to worry about having an offer rescinded. The most likely worst case scenario is that they're unwilling to budge.
Every time I look on Glassdoor there’s like a $60k range and includes $10k+ annual bonuses but the job offer is on the low end with no bonus. I swear people are trolling.
Counter with 15% more, they may come back and give you 5% more. Still a win!
Do you want the job or the salary? You must have research to present to them to justify your want.
