ask why the offer is so much lower than last year’s intern offer. don’t be specific about how you know.

Read Chris Voss’s book Never Split The Difference for negotiation tips:
1. Do your homework and know your worth. Are they having a bad year? If so, you demanding more money won’t help you.
2. Do not compare yourself to others. If you want to compare to market rates and other influences, fine, but leave others out of this.
3. Have an idea of what you’d like to make and why.
4. Now that they’ve tossed out a number you have something to work off. If they can’t offer more money, look at other options besides cash, like conference attendance or tuition assistance

It probably won’t help. You can ask for what you want without saying “I know that’s what people got last year.” Ask for what you think you are worth, and tell them why YOU are worth that. It’s as simple as that.

2. Amadeus - 18 fixed + 1.5 variable.

Amadeus is also giving joining bonus of 75k. Amadeus is paying more, may give better hikes too, but I am finding it hard to let go off Oracle's brand name on my resume even if it's means around 2L less over an year. I am planning to work for atleast 3 years in my next company.

What would you have done in my place? Should I go for Oracle or Amadeus?
