Would it be normal to try to negotiate sick time for a new job? I did just get a job offer the pay was acceptable but the PTO and sick time was super low. It is for a manufacturer industry and I am experienced in the medical industry so I understand the difference, but the time off seems low.

You can always ask. Some employers will place people in a higher accrual tier during negotiations. Just be ready to accept an unfavorable response.

I would be so skeptical of someone negotiating sick days unless they had some kind of illness. Seems like you would fake sickness. If I was the hiring person, the question I would ask is why didn’t you argue for more PTO.

It’s totally normal to negotiate, but I'd just negotiate PTO (not sick time), otherwise you might make them think that you intend on being sick a lot idk. Overall, just be respectful and explain why you think your background and expertise should warrant a little more time off.

Rarely - it's a company policy, not usually subject to individual negotiation.
Better to ask for more PTO, and just use it as you need it.

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)
