Larsen & Toubro Infotech Is it good time to join Cognizant now for Coimbatore location considering too much attrition in recent times along with many policy changes and do they have enough projects or will there be any chance of layoffs if we don't find any projects for our skill(Tableau in my case)? I have another offer with LTI, Coimbatore for same salary but i prefer CTS more than LNT. Cognizant Larsen & Toubro Infotech

Only laugh in her face if you actually don’t want the position. Best way to negotiate is to show the value you can bring to the company, and how that value wil be compensated elsewhere. Lead with class, and if they genuinely won’t meet you where you’re at then pass on the offer, and be honest in your reasons.
If it’s less than what you were hoping for and salary is your priority, then stand your ground. If they really want you, they’ll try their best to get it for you. It’s good to know your worth! If she’s having to convince you, that’s probably a sign it’s not where you should go.
What kind of perks? Are they paying for your cellphone and home internet? Extra vacation days? Ask what perks they are offering then calculate their monetary values, if any. If they don’t add up, explain why you are worth more before asking for the salary you want. If you get turned down, then ask for the salary you need. Good luck!
