What’s a fair signing bonus to ask for if I’m countering an offer at 125k base? Is 20k signing bonus for a tech strategy (not FAANG) sr. Analyst role too much to ask?

Small sample size but the most myself, a friend at Google and Facebook was able to get for signing was $10K at the Associate level.

That said, the moving package was easily worth $20-30K. My moving package was 30 days in a luxury corporate apartment, $5K in grossed expenses (so post-tax) that could be used for down payment etc., 2 round trip flights - 1 for a scouting trip to see where you wanted to live / tour places, 1 for the actual move, 2 nights in hotel for scouting trip, 30 days rental car OR $50 a day in taxi expenses for first 30 days of work in transportation to and from office plus shipping of packages.

Dude please start with 25k plus moving assistance or moving bonus of 5-8k

Your sign on bonus ask should be what you are walking away from at your current job. So if you’re walking away from a 25k bonus (prorated) this is what you can reasonably ask for

How do I leave my role as someone on the talent team. I am on a small recruitment team of only a few people, who connect daily. I am also responsible for sending out updates tracking new hires and upcoming leavers (aka I would be on this list if i decide to leave). If I am looking to leave my company, considering all of these things, how do I do it in the least awkward, most professional way possible? I want to put in at least a two week notice, but will continuing my work after that be weird?

I am an associate at an AM200 firm and was (IMO) very clear prior to accepting this role that I value work-life balance and wanted to try to keep work at night on the weekends to a minimal, but since February, it seems like it’s always something that requires my time as needed disregarding “business hours” or my personal schedule. Thoughts on whether to bring this up or continue to be a team player until I burn out and pay off my student loans?

Currently working in S&P Gloabl (Associate Software developer {Tableau})
I am looking for a job change.

Skills :- Tableau, Python, SQL.

I am currently unemployed (but looking) an opportunity to consult has potentially fallen into my lap. Before I shut it down for a lack of experience, I want to know if it's something that I can even do. It's a very very small company, not even 3 FTE. But they are looking for someone to come in, create a Handbook(I can do that), provide benefits, etc.

Is that difficult to implement? I can't imagine it being so, but I don't want to set myself up to fail.
