In general, how do you negotiate salary? Do you give salary expectations at certain % higher than you realistically want / know the market is at? Do you explain your reasoning or just shoot your shot?

Do research on the role and market salaries, if you are moving to similar role, decide what % increase you need in order to move. You can give a range, ex: low 200s. If you are changing careers/focus totally, definitely do research but also ask recruiter for range for the position. You may need to be open to a lateral or small step back if you are changing careers.

Need a sanity check here.

When I joined my current company, we were on a quarterly bonus structure with guaranteed payouts each quarter. This was, in fact, how the recruiter said he could meet my salary request.

The company just announced we are moving to annual payouts only, with no payments for 2023 until May 2024. There are no raises happening.

This amounts to 12% less money in my pocket in 2023 plus inflation.

Is this standard, or should I be looking for opportunities elsewhere?
