Can anyone share their experience with an ESOP?
Im not searching for a new job but an acquaintance reached out about a similar role at a similar energy company.Turns out 2 ppl threw my name in the hat. I looked into it and the position was posted 2 weeks ago.Their director wants to meet.I bet pay is one of the first things to be discussed so that no one’s time is wasted.Am I crazy for not wanting to entertain it for less than 20-25% base pay increase?Is it selfish to ask for more? I’m sure most salary conversations end in negotiation anyways?

This is the time to negotiate IF they have provided a comp in the verbal offer or they ask for questions like about compensation. This is ideal since they did ask here.
If not, and just provided a range, i would wait until the written offer.
I agree with the other comments – negotiate now before the offer is formally put in writing.
You will tick the internal recruiter off otherwise for:
(a.) time wasting, as they will have at this stage already got clearance from the hiring manager and the senior business partner/budget approver for the offer she is about to put in writing to you and
(b.) It would reflect badly on the recruiter if they need to go back up the line to request re-approval again and
(c.) in large companies, there is quite a bit of admin and cross-teaming (IT, ops, finance, security, HR etc.) involved in formally generating an offer via Workday or similar platform… so it would cause confusion and delays if they had to cancel the first written offer and essentially add a new and second offer to the system.
The net-net of causing such an admin headache for the recruiter is that they may raise this with the hiring manager as a reason not to formally extend you the offer, as it could be perceived as showing poor judgement / lacking negotiation skills or experience that might be pertinent to the role or if they were 50/50 between you and another candidate, then this might be enough to tip them over the edge and for the offer to be rescinded.

Negotiations are a tactic that I’m not sure anyone truly masters.
From a hiring manager’s perspective, there may be several qualified candidates who are closely aligned, even if you are the preferred choice. That’s why compensation conversations can be difficult to navigate.
My personal view is this: if you’re genuinely happy with the offer, think carefully about how much risk you’re willing to take just to gain a little more compensation. Every situation is different.
One approach is to provide a salary range upfront, such as $100K–$120K, rather than a single number. If the company comes in at $100K and, after reviewing the full package and including healthcare, 401(k), bonus structure, equity, PTO, and other benefits and you determine the total package is below market value, then a reasonable discussion may be appropriate.
Where candidates can create challenges is when they provide a range of $100K–$120K, receive an offer within that range, and then come back asking for significantly more than what they originally stated. That can create concerns about alignment and expectations.
My advice is simple: do your homework, understand your market value, establish a compensation range you’re comfortable with, and be prepared to be happy within that range. Negotiation is part of the process, but credibility and consistency matter just as much as compensation.
I am in a similar position, got the verbal offer from a large corporation and was told that the written offer will be sent in a day.. I asked recruiter if there is any flexibility, and he responded there may be but he is not sure given the amount of diligence this offer went through. I am concerned if trying to negotiate will be a wastage of everyone's time and delaying my start. Thoughts?
