๐Ÿ“– Salary Negotiation Tips

Total Compensation (TC) vs Base Salary

TC = Base Salary + Bonus + Annual Equity + Other Benefits. Focus negotiation on base salary since bonuses and equity are often calculated as a percentage of base.

Sign-on Bonus Strategy

Sign-on bonuses compensate for lost annual bonuses or unvested equity from leaving your current job. If you have unvested stock, ask for a sign-on to cover it.

Counter-Offer Tips

Never accept the first offer. Support your counter with market data. Give a specific number, not a range. If HR says "this is our best," ask: "What would it take to get to $X?"

Look Beyond Money

Consider commute time, remote work policy, career growth potential, team culture, health insurance, and other non-monetary factors.
