Could be an honest mistake. Could be a slip up for the actual budget. Who knows?   
    
 Did you try pushing them beyond X?

It looks like an honest mistake to me. Reality only they will know. 
 I guess no chances of pushing.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

So one company HR after a lot of talking finalised x amount 

But send me a salary structure screenshot of 2x and told me to consider this as an offer letter. Said she will give me an offer and appointment letter on joining day. In cc official company HR email and other HRs are present 

I replied yes. Coz if they wanna give me more I don't have any problem right

Now she comes and says sorry it was mistakenly sent and considers the below x salary structure

What shall I be doing here?

Offer surprise!

Offer surprise!- Grapevine

I've recently got an offer from a Unicorn Startup, and they pay pretty well (My friends do work there) 
But I'm getting lowballed. They're offering only 50% of what they offer, and even after having so many calls, they're at max pushing it to 70%, which doesn't make sense to me. 
They are claiming my Current CTC & saying they can only offer a 30% hike. I don't even get that point. 
 I think ur new CTC shouldn't be based on your previous especially if you are already paying so much to others. Getting less than what my juniors are earning in the same position, baffles me. 

How do I move forward? I've clearly said that I'm only interested in this amount of money. At the same time, I feel it's better than what I make right now (not much better tho, because WFH vs WFO) I'm okayishhh with the work I do, but the brand name is also a valid concern (I do have a few brand names in my Resume, and that does actually impact) 

How do I push more? 
I've clearly told them that this is what you pay & they accept it but constantly raise my Current CTC as their brahmastra. Also, I don't like the tone she's talking with (repeatitvely making me feel inferior about current CTC & my less exp & all),  nor do I want to lose my temperament

Also one question, they've asked me for the Offer letter, and I have stupidly handed it to them. Is that a norm? What to do in that case next time? 
I already told them before interviewing how much base I'm expecting.. And they said it would depend on your interviews (where I'm a strong hire) & CTC. And now they're behaving weirdly. 

What to do!

How to negotiate?

Need Help, After clearing all the interview round HR send a mail with agreed compensation, asking for resignation acceptance letter before release offer letter, is this normal or I am getting tricked ?

I have two offers in hand. My question is can I send my offer letter of one company to another company to get counter offer?

Can I send offer letter

Data engineer

I accidentally shared the actual offer from one company with another company instead of sharing just the anexure.
Will there be any consequences? Does HRs contact each other to verify competing offers?
I am a bit scared that the first company might withdraw my offer if they come to know that I am window shopping.

Offer letter sharing for salary negotiation

Senior Data Scientist

Hi everyone recently i have went interview with eclerx for there client as goldmansachs [soft dev role] i was fine as they are giving decent hike on current . After clearing interview she asked me to give every document to release the offer.I was ok and then she started asking every document from joining bonus credit to each sem marks along with my name in that and residential proof or what not. I was little resistive but still gave it as she was mentioning its bank and compliance.

Today she mentioned she will release the offer knowingly i have to join the other org tomorrow. Now after reaching out couple of time she called back saying i had a call with super boss since pay is high i need to take one more client round.

I see the email she used was correct and the profile of both hr were fine on linkedin but the way she behaved while expediting on document part and later saying its ok if you don’t want to join. I smell something cooking.


Did this happened to you ? What do you think assuming supply of candidates are they preparing some database. Also what are the red flags you have seen these days

Job market & recruiter

I was thinking since people send offer letters by hiding some information can we edit the compensation ourselves and ask for better compensation. Although i know this is not right but just curious how HRs validate whether its valid one or edited one?

Edit Offer Letters

If i landed a any offer so how smarty i can move to take it forward - 

Incident happened with my acquaintance - Once HR Called my acquaintance so acquaintance discussed CTC only and Joined the Company but after 1 Month HR Called for Offer Letter Collection so my acquaintance shocked because there were 3 months Notice Period

So is there any Steps like

HR Called- First Rough CTC Discussion - Ask for Company Agreement & T&C Etc

Please mention your experience. Thanks

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Hey, this is first time working for small startup, it's been almost 2ywars now and this company os not giving me salary slip, I have asked a few times but they keep ignoring the request. Also, being a small startup i don't get any ppf and other benefits. How should I go about it. I have recently heard that not being on ppf may let new recruits doubt about the credibility of work. They have lot of pending salaries and not having salary slip makes it difficult to trak how much is pending and how much I have recieved. 
Any suggestions will be helpful.

What can be the consequences of showing Forged offer letter. Like I have got offer 0f 24LPA from Company A. Now company B offers me same I want to join B, whatif I edit 24 of A to 28 LPA, show that to B and ask them match it. I don't think B will contact A to confirm it, BgV also concerns previous employers.. So is there any risk???

Hi All,

I have cleared the final round of interview with Accenture and I was told i will get a call from HR for further process but today I received a regret mail from Accenture stating they are unable to process my application due to not meeting the expected compensation.

At the initial stage they asked me for the expected CTC I mentioned a 60% hike, but I am ready to negotiate.

Without discussing they sent regret mail, how should I approach HR to negotiate or 
is my profile completely rejected?

Regret mail from Accenture for not meeting expected compensation

Senior Consultant

I recently interviewed at a large company. I applied by sending my resume to someone in my network who works there and they forwarded the resume to HR. After that I got a call from HR and they asked for my expected salary among other things to which I answered that I want a 40% hike. I cleared all technical interviews and after that I got a mail saying that they would like to offer me a full time role and asked some of my documents to prepare an offer.

I was curious about them asking for documents without having an HR round first so I called the HR and asked some details about the job and she ensured that they can give me a 40% hike on base but not on TC so I assumed they will hike my base and keep the other components in a similar range to what I currently have. 

I send the documents and on the next day I get a call from HR asking about my expected compensation again, I then ask about their salary structure and they explain that it's all fixed. I was confused on what number to give them so I said that I wanted a 40% hike but since my TC consists of variable components and theirs don't, I would like to know what is the maximum salary they could give me to which the HR replied that they will let me know in a while.

It's been more than 24 hours and I haven't heard back. I don't want to call the HR because that might make me look desperate and give them a reason to lowball me but I'm not sure what to do and am even more confused about the kind of process being followed at this company.

What kind of a hiring process is this? Need advice [Repost with better formatting]

Cleared all rounds and feedback was great, before releasing offer letter, HR sent an email asking for lot of documents - current company’s offer letter, increment letter, other offer letters that I hold, resignation acceptance letter citing last working date, etc.  
is this normal?

HR asking infi docs before offer letter

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

My current CTC is 8.1 Ipa and during interview rounds, I have asked for 15 LPA as that was the budget of the role. It's an MNC BANK. Not revealing the company. Now they are saying that only a 30% hike is possible because no one in the industry will give more than 30% of the current salary it seems. I asked what kind of logic is this as my skill sets are good and I have cleared all technical rounds. They say that's how it is. This is in hr discussion.

What to do in such a situation? How to ask?

My offer is based on my current salary but not skillset??!!!

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Questions
1. Do companies ask for offer lettera from other companies, to show internally and match t he offers.
Or we can mask the company name and then send a screenshot of another offer?

2. Suggest a strategy to up the offer.

Negotiate salary from multiple offers,  How?

Product Manager

I have given interviews and cleared them.
I got a call from HR asking for payslips and another offer details.

They said they will get back with offer.

How to go about here? If they come with a lower offer than what i asked, how much liberty i have to ask further.
Does HR will come with 2-3 various levels of offer and then try to negotiate with me.

Any help or insights would be helpful in how HR comes with offer details.
My interviews were pretty good and i think they like me.

How does salary negotiation before offer work

Don't share payslips yet if possible. Do it after finalising your offer details. 
  
 What information have you shared? Current compensation? Expected range? Do you have any other offers in hand? 
  
 The game that follows now is that of leverage of information vs offer expiry timelines. 
  
 They will share an offer. You can call it "interesting" but don't share more details on if you like it or not - you need to "think more" before you can share your opinion. Say that you need to discuss it with your well-wishers and also evaluate compared to other opportunities. 
  
 Get back to them on email and call the offer "strong" (if it is really good) or "interesting" (for all other cases). Suggest some improvements to the offer that would make it more compelling for you. Don't guarantee that you will accept the offer if these things are provided (unless it's your last day till offer expiry). Keep negotiating with everyone that is interesting and keep dropping the non-interesting ones. 
  
 Also, don't call the negotiation discussions a "negotiation" - that word sounds negative. Call it "discussing offer details" or something. 
  
 FYI: All of these tips are from the highly popular negotiation blog posts by Haseeb. They've worked well for me.

Equity Research

I'll go first. I got a call for an APM role from one of the companies which did sound pretty sketchy and the recruiter was started bullying me into answering questions, when I asked to know more about the role. The recruiter was extremely unprofessional, and obviously the conversation was nowhere great. They however, did go ahead and sent me the JD and other links, etc to fill in and apply for the job. Mind you, I hadn't applied for the job. 🥲
It just was a pretty sour conversation which had left me in an uncertain situation. Any similar experiences?

Weird recruiter experiences

Asked for my expected CTC. I answered and they weren't happy with it. Said they could only give at 40% increment of current CTC and then asked for my current CTC. After hearing my current CTC they said I shouldn't be earning this much and that I was obviously making it up. Then asked to send over my salary payslip which I refused. Basically the HR started being extremely rude at this point stating that I was being unprofessional. I asked their salary budget for the role which they refused to answer. Then I asked if they were willing to hire me for a lower CTC which she instantly agreed and said she knew I was reasonable and I shouldn't have lied about my CTC. I then said good luck finding a candidate for that amount and hung up.

Hi Fishes, 

My potential employer is asking for the previous company's offer letter and 3 month salary slips after all interviews.

I'm not sure on providing my previous offer letter though, Can I say that I've signed an NDA or would that also need any documentation.

Please provide some assistance on this.

Potential employer asking for previous company's offer letter and payslips

I have 2 offers for an SDE-1 position and I'm not able to choose between them.

Offer 1: 
Pros: Large product based US company. Work is tech stack agnostic which I was looking for since I wanted to move out of my current stack. I've heard it's chill.
Cons: Salary is lower than what was discussed initially. After I cleared all interviews, I didn't have a proper discussion about salary from the HR which kind of seems like a red flag.

Offer 2:
Pros: 15% higher salary. People were more friendly and more open to questions and discussions, I feel they treated me with more respect. I could have a greater learning opportunity there maybe.
Cons: STARTUP. Tech stack is similar to the one I'm currently using and it's not the best choice for scalable and maintainable services. More hectic. More stress. More responsibilities. They haven't raised a lot of funding so I'm a bit unsure about my future there.

Any opinion on what I should go with?
