Don't join on these terms, from the first day you'll be resenting the company and thinking about how to move somewhere else or how to get a promotion. It's a bad position to start the relationship for both sides (which is also why companies shouldn't aggressively low-ball offers).
- positionPanic 4y agoPay from offer is ok, but the range for which I actually interviewed was great, which is why it's a letdown for me. I am a bit angry currently, will sleep on it before answering the offer.
- twobitshifter 4y agoyou can always negotiate for more, company won’t start your offer at their limit.
- positionPanic 4y agoThey said they have limits for positions, guessing this is the one for mids, as I requested a (known) senior range. (This one is close to the starting senior one)
- tmaly 4y agoWhy not renegotiate? There is really no downside and only upside here if you have an existing job.
