I think bringing up personal issues or situations as a negotiation technique is almost always a bad idea. It just comes off as unprofessional and can seem irrelevant or petty. The only time it could be useful might be, for example, if a company made someone change a work location which added to the commute. The company changing the circumstances seems like it would be a fair point to bring up.

I agree with the company relocating. My company went through that a few years ago, they moved to a new office space 45 minutes south to a big city. Most employees lived north of the former office and now needed to take public transportation into the city. I’m sure many people wouldn’t have accepted their positions at those salaries if they knew they would have the additional cost of the commute.

I wouldn't either. My understanding has always been that companies do not care one bit about your personal life. They need to be convinced that you're worth the extra money you're requesting. Talking about a long drive or needing to afford your kids' private school isn't going to sway them.

Yah bad advice for sure! That’s a red flag for a “me me me all about me” type of candidate who will be nothing but a thorn the rest of their employment so I’ll hard pass.

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
