London is notorious for paying terrible compensation to their workers. It's really better to work in America, lesser taxes and bigger rate. Just a tip, if you want to start a negotiation, start it with the biggest number.

I always ask them to share their range and then ask for the higher end. Otherwise, you could undersell yourself. Good luck!

Ask what someone typically makes in the role, and then say you want the highest version of that. You can even bargain for higher.

Update: they said that depending on experience they have 3 salary tiers: 20k + commission | 25k + commission | 30k + commission

I moved cities and my company is giving me 12% decrease in my salary. My current salary is within my new cities range, and I am definitely not paid market rate to begin with…also for context I have always been a high performer, have many relevant certifications, and am involved with initiatives outside my billable work

I’m not interested in accepting a decrease this large. What happens if you don’t accept it? Do you see if they come back with something more reasonable or will they fire you?

Hate: getting assigned bulks from others and it throws off efficiency of reviewing suits, monotony, depositions
