I used your salary negotiation piece, among other sources, to negotiate a ~15% boost in my offer at the company I started at about a year ago. Most money I ever made from a 3-sentence email and a 5-minute phone call.

- austinsharp 12y agoI too benefited greatly from the negotiation piece (got the signing bonus from the offer I didn't want from the company with the offer where I did want to work) and it's become part of my standard package of advice and resources for friends looking for software jobs. Thank you!!
- NamTaf 12y agoIt was also the first thing I looked up when negotiating on my position I start next month. I've secured a 10% raise upfront, with a further 15% + access to a max. 25% yearly bonus arranged once I get a qualification in the first quarter of the new year. It took a little bit to map the software eng. assumptions to a mech eng. role such as my own (especially given the market is terrible for me right now where I am) but it paid off in dividends for me. So thank you so much!
