<prompt> Human: Ive been stewing over this a bit. I work for a nonprofit with limited benefits and no real retirement, but theyve always been good to me is hour flexibility, etcRecently, I was offered a promotion to a director position. My boss and I had a meeting and went over specifics and all seemed good. Ive done this job before and would be a good move up. However, when we broached salary she stated there would be a adjustment, but wouldnt give specifics. Im pretty certain she wanted me to commit to it before I even knew the salary. I told her I felt like I was worth high 60s, which is approximately 10 less than than the person in that role which I quietly found out beforehand. I mentioned that I had a similar job offer from another company for around 60k that I turned down. And wed be saving 13k on my replacement. So all in all should be at least 10k savings. But she wants to base it on a bump from my current much lower salary, rather than what the job actually should pay. She instantly quit talking, almost like she felt betrayed by even asking for a higher salary. Its been awkward around the office for the 48 hours since. Anyone else been in this situation? ---Edit 9pm eastern: thanks for all the comments. Ive decided to put together a cover letter of sorts with supporting documentation for the salary request, including my business plan on how I would provide additional value in the role. We have an unrelated lunch tmrw so Ill let you know how it goes. No going back now.  <response>: Former corporate recruiter here - shes lowballing you. More responsibilities, new title and she is vague on comp? That isnt how HR works. Titles, roles and responsibilities are tied to comp ranges and buckets that hiring leaders can use for departments. The fact that that wasnt discussed or shown in writing is a giant red flag.Get the real numbers and then its a real offer. My 2 cents.
