I just got my second promotion in 3 months. The salary I’ve been offered is less than what I was expecting and could get elsewhere. Can I ask for more or is there no negotiation at promotion stage?

Publicis, do you speak any foreign languages? If you're not familiar with any and how sentence structure and grammar for conveying abstract concepts such as time can wildly vary in different languages, pipe down. I wasn't being even remotely sarcastic previously. And it wouldn't be the first time someone whose native language is not English who's posted something on here with a word off that has thrown all the comments into a negative thread. Such as the first two commenters on here.
So, no SR1, not being smug in the slightest, unlike you.

OP, congratulations and I have answered your question. In fact, if you're that much of a wunderkind and they're worried about you leaving them so they want to increase your required notice time, sounds like you have plenty of leverage to negotiate your new salary.

It will always be more somewhere else. Always. Be grateful that they are recognizing your efforts. Take the opportunity to ask them for a career path discussion. What are your expectations for future earning potential and advancement. And what do you have to do to get there. It will make you seem less like an ungrateful prick/wench.
