Do you know why they've landed on manager? Is it a matter of missing knowledge/ skill? Experience? Its easier to negociate if you know more about their thinking...

Is there a way to give them that feedback? And is it even worth it anyway?

Hi everybody,

Looking for some insight/curious to hear how others would handle this situation:

I have an offer I want to accept; I was trying to negotiate for a signing bonus… but they’re not budging.

The issue is, the start date is in a month and I’m up for a promotion in a week at my current company. I would like to leave before I get promoted, I think it would be pretty low of me to accept and promptly quit.

Not the new employer’s problem? Or can/should I try to leverage this?
