When one works with an external headhunter, it’s to their own benefit to get you the highest salary right?

I feel like sometimes a recruiter will try and get you to accept a lower offer so they can secure their commission. Agencies aren't generally exclusive with recruiters, so if one of their competitors gets a candidate through first, they won't get rewarded for bringing forward a potentially better candidate if their salary ask is higher. (No proof, just my opinion.)

Received an offer but it's slightly a paycut (not much) ..company knows but they don't have much more wiggle room (job in industry). I'm excited about the offer but countered as there was no sign on bonus...the title is a lateral move but they are saying it'll be 2-3 years till promotion.. I'm up for promo in January at pwc and have a great chance of being promoted. Would u stay till January and then leave..risking that the offer would probably not exist?

How much hike can Virtusa provide for 90 days notice period

I have cleared all rounds and shared the documents, HR is saying for 90 Days NP and no offer in hand we can provide maximum of 30% hike as per company policy. (If I bring another offer than they’ll revise it and also add joining bonus)

Also variable component is 9% as per company policy (which is too much )
And I’ve seen other offers of Virtusa having 5% variable

Please suggest how to proceed with this situation.

Thanks in advance

Do I just tell the other provider I'm no longer interested?

Wasn’t trying to hide it, just didn’t think being on a treadmill for 5 min was worthy of being brought up in convo.

Am I the asshole here? I don’t think I did anything wrong and refuse to start giving my wife status updates while she’s out.
