So, I am entering a second round of salary negotiations, I'm trying to get a 6% raise but my employer has only offered a 2% raise. Any suggestions on how I can get them to increase their offer?

Gather and present any evidence of how well you have performed at your job. It’s all about the numbers. The more you can show in black and white, the more likely you are to get the raise you want. The 2% raise offer is commonplace in this industry and can be hard to surpass, especially right now as companies use the recession excuse for not being able to give you more.

Is it misleading to just look at Total Compensation from a $ dollar value/ Total Compensation seems to be much more subjective than base salary in terms of its value. Some factors might be:

RSUs granted on dollar value or by # of shares & stock price trends
Vesting schedule
strike price on ISOs & delta between strike price and real market value

For instance, most of value in Amazon's comp seems to be granted in years 3 & 4, but it's well known that most people last only 2 years max there.

I’ve been approached my by company that one of our large clients (who im currently project managing for) is looking for a consultant of sorts, and if they hire us, I’d be the first person asked to take on this consultant role. This isn’t something my company typically offers and would greatly change the scope of my role. Has anyone ever taken on a role like this? If so, were you able to negotiate a percentage of the consulting fee? Or was it a bump in salary during the project?
