What’s been your most impressive/successful salary negotiation when you’ve received an offer? Did you manage to get way more PTO or other perks?

Yes! I had asked HR for the salary range they had set aside for the role, and already had my goal salary in mind. When I received the final offer, I negotiated $10K more, which was a little above their range, and an extra week of vacation. In my experience, the hiring manager and HR are willing to flex for the right candidate. Got both my requests approved!

One of my colleagues also negotiated a bonus, which is unheard of in this industry. The bonus was based on how much the person was able to grow the account.

We Indians are so poor we can't think anything else except money. Whole Fishbowl is all about YOe and Salary. No one interested about if any company doing any innovation or not.

Hardly we can see Foreign Editorial things marked with Packages.

Question about remote job negotiations

I'm currently interviewing for a remote role for a company based in NY.

The thing is I'm based in a different city (southern U.S.)

My question is:

When it comes time to talk compensation, should I base the market rate for the role on my city of residence or NY?

Would it make sense to ask them directly how they determine comp for NY-bases vs. other city-based employees?

Anyone have experience with this?
