What I have noticed is that recruiters seem to start an offer out at about 45th percentile, maybe 50th percentile for a given level. Ultimately, it depends on how badly you want the job, so if you want it bad, you probably would be scared to negotiate.
Also, i would recommend negotiating for more RSUs over base.
I'd like to take the job, mostly to get out of a dying industry and break into tech. I have other offers more local to where I currently live so not concerned about retraction if I negotiate.
I spoke to a friend who works there and he said the same about RSU. Probably the approach I'll take.
