I received an offer for $74k as underwriting analyst. Company is based out of DC. Is $74k a good offer? Or should I negotiate for more. 6 years in the industry. 5 as an account manager/underwriting assistant

That sounds like a great offer to me. Are the other benefits good? Health coverage, possibly remote work options, 401k match and PTO? Compensation other than base? It is an employees market so if you think you can bring more value than that, counter offer. 5-10% more counter.

That’s a great 401k match most I’ve had and currently have is 3%! I think it’s a great offer.

Does this involve you having to relocate to DC or the DC area? If so ask for more the DC area is very expensive.

With 6 YOE you should definitely negotiate for more or look elsewhere for better offers. Base salary can determine what your future raises/ bonus schedule are. Don’t sell yourself short especially in the market we’re in where employees have the upper hand when negotiating. I’d keep my eyes open if I were you. Good luck, best wishes to you!
