Hi ,I have been interviewed and selected in S&P Global .salary almost negotiated and waiting for the offer letter to release. But seems like they are not willing to release the offer because of my 90 np . They are asking to join by 60 days but initially I told them my NP is 90. Even I am ready to take the 60 days offer but now they are not releasing offer as they want assurance.Now they are not picking calls.seems like i will loose the offer. Is there anything can be done.

Please evaluate this initial offer for Apple ICT3. I think I was low balled, but I want to take more opinions. Currently Sr. MTS at VMware, received Apple ICT3. I was expecting to get to ICT4 but seems like team thinks upper end of ICT3 is more apt. Also, I think it is because I don’t have any counter offers yet.
Received offer
Base: 185k
Sign on: 40k
RSU: 160k/4 years (Here is where I think it is low)
Location: Cupertino,CA
Current TC
229k
YOE: 3.5 years US / 6.5 overall(similar roles)

I don’t know how over/underpaid you are. But in my experience, a $10k raise isn’t dreaming big enough. You could negotiate close to a $10k raise just staying at your current gig. Hypothetically if you’re a senior creative making $110k, and you have a potential new job interested, ask for $130k (or whatever number is comparably relevant to you). I think this new job would consider it a bargain to get a new hire while only giving them a $10k raise. But again, i don’t know what your current salary is.
Depends on where you live
Too many variables to weigh in here, man.
Not a man, but thanks for the no input lol.
You should always be asking based on market value and what you bring to a role, not your current salary.
depends on what % of your current salary that represents and if it's a bump in title. but I'd always go high and come down to something you're still happy with.
Ask for at least a 20% bump. Unless it’s a title change, then ask for pay commensurate with that title in whatever market u r in. Don’t ever lowball your title. That hurts everyone. Especially you.
Yeah I would never want to undervalue myself. Its just a little hard to know what is the right number especially when I currently work at an agency under a holding company that’s notorious for lowballing people. I’ve managed to get raises there, but I really don’t know anyone else there in a junior/intermediate level who has. It makes me so mad when I hear people are signing for 35k with them in a city where that can’t even cover your rent.
I always say I'm making 10-15k more than I actually am then I ask for 10k on top of that depending on the market and city. But I'm also very aware of pricing myself out. The nice thing is then agencies are more willing to talk other benefits too.
I always start by inflating my current salary by $10k when talking to prospective new employers. Then I usually ask them what they’re looking to pay the position before telling them a number I’m looking for. You never want to be the first to say a salary range bc you might be undercutting what they’re willing to pay.
