Best offer negotiations you ever had
Just for fun, but what are some of the best negotiations you ever had in professional world? Might be increase in base, RSUs, Sign Ons, etc etc etc. Let me start with myself: asked for x amount got 1.5x as TC
In the initial offer discussion, when recruiter told me the number i said” it was good working with you , i cant accept the offer “. Next day i got 2x comp(tc)
Oh nice! Was it with Oracle ??
What was the role? Leadership?
Apple recruiter increased the rsu and bonus by 2x after saying multiple times that they have pulled all strings and reached the highest possible number.
Haha what was the offer in the end? For me they wouldn't budge, even when I walked away.
Recruiter said x amount is the max they can do as TC. I said I had competing offer (did not have any). Got 25% more the next day.
Really? This is weird that there is no way for employers to verify but if employers have the budget for an open position they should not be stingy and offer less money at first and wait for negotiation.
I pushed for more, they said no, co went out of business...
Yep. Well deserved lesson. They wish they had you. Would have saved their asses.
Haha! So technically here they negotiated but still you made the profit!
