I hear the hustle in this, and I respect it. But be careful, "money will come" isn’t always true unless you ask for it. I’ve worked with folks who were amazing but kept getting overlooked because they never pushed back on pay.

Agree with this!

I like the mindset that money isn't everything. But I still want money 😆 like most things, it's just a resource that can help you grow and make your life easier. If I have the choice between a high salary and a low salary, I'm taking a high salary every time. I would even take a boring job with lackluster educational opportunities but a high salary over a low-paying job with lots of learning potential.

i get this, but only if you building something on the side, otherwise that boring becomes reeaaalll boring

Why not ask for both? It isn’t one or the other

I had this mindset early in my career, it’s great for building the passion but i realised that I never learnt how to do salary negotiations. “The job seemed super fun so just pay me whatever, I want in” -> i soon realised that most companies lowball and expect you to negotiate. With that said, negotiating is an easier skill to learn, but will probably mean that you will need to switch companies to earn what you are worth

Nah, the companies can pay me my true value while I gain experience that will ultimately benefit them anyways.

Hmm I wish I could agree with you but in this economy sometimes you really do have to work for higher salary. Obviously if you are miserable in the role I wouldn't suggest keeping it for the money but if you can tolerate it then I would probably stay. Its great to get experience but at some point it does sort of become about the money.

Hi All, I have an urgent query regarding TCS BGC process. My issue is that I have worked in X, Y and Z companies.
In X company I worked for 26months but my pf account is there for last 13months, before that my salary was very low so sometimes I got salary in hand or in pay cheque. I do have salary account statement for most of the months except 3-4 months in between my tenure. Will I face any issue for this?

Should I negotiate without any competing offers?

Company: Walmart Tech Labs
Location: Hoboken
Base: 150k
Bonus: 24k (16%)
RSU: 25k / year for 3 years

Offered TC: 180k
YOE: 3

I initially thought TC was 199k, but it’s actually 180k. Should I say something like “I was expecting 220. Is there anything you can do like a sign on bonus/raise base a bit to help get to 220?” To see if they can bump it up a bit?

I just don’t want to negotiate and get the offer rescinded.

Interviewing at a dream company, and right from the first interview the recruiter told me we are way off on salary expectations. This was a little bit expected, as the role is requiring a few years less experience than I have and also in a much cheaper market. They already told me the salary range during this first call, but wondering if they like me enough and I get an offer, how I might approach negotiating for more. I would be making much less than I do now, but it is a dream company.
