I once pushed on an offer and got the response, this is the best we can do based on salary bands. How can you gauge whether there is flexibility at all? Should you just assume these days the offer is more or less final?

You push until they say this is the best we can do. You either then start to negotiate vacation, benefits, bonus, sign-on bonus, etc. if you still feel it’s insufficient.

Or.. you have a choice to make based on the companies best and final offer.

The good part is, you at least know you’re getting the max they’re will to offer in a situation like this.

Yes that makes sense, thanks

You definitely push until they are at their best offer. If you're not happy with their final offer I'd recommend negotiating sign on bonus or spot bonus after 90 days or something like that. You could also negotiate to work from home or development opportunities: Continuing education benefits and even travel and conference compensation.

That’s a good approach, thank you!

I lateraled into a niche practice group in Sept 2021. I also have a 1 year old and have been mostly remote since I started - but have been keeping busy tracking towards 2400-2500 hours. That said getting to know people only remote has been kind of awkward at times (email only can be tough to decipher) although as a working mom the pros vastly outweigh the cons. Yesterday my main partner asked me to come in Thursday bc he will be there and set a time to meet. Is this good/bad?? kind of nervous!
