Received a pretty awesome offer from Facebook. Accepted it. Made a feeble attempt at negotiating the base but the HR said its a firm offer. Was able to negotiate a sign on bonus nonetheless. But now, i feel i should have negotiated the base better. 10k more on base and I would have been 100% satisfied with the offer. Feeling dumb.

10k is peanuts in the bigger picture. Why bother ruminating over it. I took a huge pay cut (30%) to join a startup, but I honestly think less about my pay than I did in my previous job, because I enjoy my days so much more.

Dude congrats! Why are you even asking about 10k? You’re not even getting close to the new salary at EY. You’re making great money, more than me and I am an SM.

Is the stock a one time sign-on incentive? If so, it’s still solid offer but I can see the hesitation.

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!

I’ve brought this up a few times and was told HR would do research into salary equity, but the convo always fades. I put my foot down with my GCD, and she supports me, but I would like to come to the table with my own research. Where should I be looking for accuracy?
