You scared me, my offers have been ranging from 70-76k. No bonus at the one I like but at the higher end of that range. Want to negotiate but no real numbers to back it.

Just tell them you are willing to move for this number plus bonus. They either bite or say seeya

Just look for a 20% pay bump from what you make. I got very lucky. All my other offers were mid 70s and a small bonus at year end.

Do recruiter or jobs you apply for confirm with your current employer what you make right now?

@AuditSenior1 no they don't but they do have sources that can confirm the range. Other friends, 3rd party sources etc so don't embellish too much hah

I got a 24% bump, shitty bonuses though

@EY2 approx what is your base? 24% is pretty sweet

25%* Well, NY FSO S1 make around 68-72k, so 25% bump from my Oct 1 EY Salary. Over 40% bump from my Staff 2 (Sept 30) salary though

I was offered a Solutions Architect role with a packaging company. When discussing details with the recruiter, she specified that the salary was $60k…I was shocked to hear that number.

I gave her my target salary as $100-120k (I have 3 years experience in IT, 1 in IT Procurement, now a PM). She said the highest they would likely be able to go is $85k, but she would have to speak with the hiring managers.

I still think $85 is too low for the role. What do you think is a fair salary?

My sales lead just gave me my quota for the year. Its increased 120% from last year. I asked if my peers experienced the same increase and the answer is No because I have more experience and up for promo this year. Our bonuses are a % of quota achieved meaning it’s harder for me to get a bonus. Do you think this is fair? What would you do? For additional context, I crushed my quota last year but I feel like I’m being punished now.
