Offered lower compensation

I was recently an intern at DE Shaw. I had troubles with my manager from the start, as he was very hands-off, and wasn't really available from the start.

In the end, I ended up with a PPO, However, the compensation offered seems to be lower by 10 lakhs (all in base salary, from what I know). I'm sure I did great work, and just ended up the lower comp because of my managers review.

Should I try negotiating for a higher offer? Would it work if I don't have any competing offers?

No, you can look for a switch while you accept this offer.

If you still want to try, have a doc on your points and go ahead

Yup, I'm looking for a switch. I thought of writing an email to the HR but I'm not sure if pointing a finger at my manager would work

It generally doesn't. You'll be the one fired
