How bad do you want this job? If not bad enough, say this to the HR:
"I appreciate the offer but I strongly believe that my market value should get me $desired and if you cannot match that, I will not be able to move forward."
Hit send, close tab and go away from your emails for a while. If they truly value your skills since they already interviewed you, you will get the deal. If not, hey you didnt lose anything
This has worked for me many times.
- nicholas73 10y agoThanks. I've got some unique circumstances that do let me walk away, and I'm only asking for parity within the company.
- dood 10y agoThere is far more demand than supply for developers right now. If there are other equivalent employers available to you, you don't have to do anything other than politely insist on market rate, and be fully prepared to walk away if they won't meet that.
