What are the best tactics when negotiating for a higher salary? I always struggle to get more money out of a company and come out feeling like I could’ve got more for myself.

Bring market data.

Like the average salary for the role in my area?

Sell yourself as the best candidate and be firm with your position of value.

Then you either accept what they give you or you say no. You need to work on selling yourself.

I agree with the first comment, you have to bring market data and back up your position with that. I would also use your experience to negotiate higher pay. Just remember, the worst they can say is no.

I guess it’s not the end of the world if I fail and don’t get a higher salary but I just overthink it when it comes to negotiating

I am scheduled to fly from NYC to Mumbai via Paris next Wednesday (Jan 5) for a ~10 day trip.

I’ve had all recommended vaccine shots and I’m only in Paris for a 2 hour layover (not leaving the airport). Any information on this would be greatly appreciated!

Heading to an M7 soon from a tech company where I work in a product-adjacent position. I didn’t need this degree to “break into” product management (former company would have let me transition), but I still figured it could be good for the long run.
Now when thinking about 100K in loans, I feel anxious about not getting a PM role after. Was this the right move?

On pace to bill only 1500 as a first year (2021 v15 corporate). Is this cause for concern? Also should I expect pro rated bonus?

Hi all,

Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both
KPMG and EY. I’m more interested in the EY offer, but they are paying 3k less than KPMG.

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!
