What would you say during negotiations if you need $xx to leave but make it professional. I have a good offer for industry but it’s not that great of a jump and I’m S2 in big4

Every Company asks what compensation you want. You go 10% higher than what you “need.” Then if the come in lower, you counter with that need number. It’s not unprofessional to negotiate as long as you act professionally doing it. Also, it’s always better to support your numbers through some type of market research, etc.

Yeah. LinkedIn salary insights, glassdoor, current job postings, emphasize what makes you worth more than their offer.

Nobody is going to give you comp because you “need” it. You have to explain the business case for why the comp you’re asking for makes sense for the role and your experience.
There are posts on here every other day about best practices for salary negotiation
