Ask for 10k signing. Most seniors I know who got offers got 5k. As for salary that sounds about right to me

Many years ago I had started at kpmg in Silicon Valley as a new manager. My salary was $105k plus $10k signing. Also I was moving from another b4 with 5 years experience. So your offer seems very reasonable. Don’t worry about what it could have been if you had asked for more. The only thing you should probably ask them is perhaps a $10k signing instead of $5 but your base is solid.

Hello, I need advice on salary negotiations at my current employer. Got offered a HR management role @ $62k a year. The average salary in SLC is $73k. Someone less than 1 year of experience earns $69k. I’m also PHR certified and have 5+ years of progressive experience in all functions of HR. Anyone in the outdoor or sporting goods industry with a company size of 250-300 employees? TIA

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?
