<prompt> Human: Ive received an offer from a company Im interested in working for. Its over 25 more than my current salary package, which is 100k. Its for a US company in a country outside the US. Ive usually negotiated a bit in the past but I dont think its worth pushing them on money when its already quite reasonable.They called me to get my reaction, and I have the night to think about it, so Im tossing up whether to ask for some non-financial benefits.Im curious what else youve asked for and had a company agree to in the past?The main ones that come to mind are seeing whether I can try to negotiate more paid leave though I figure they will say they dont have that option. Ive already talked about some flexibility on office hours, leave without pay and occasional working form home - all of which they are theoretically OK with to some degree. I might see if I can formalise something get it in writing, or at least verbally acknowledge it so I dont feel like Im treading on eggshells about it down the track.NB - The package is good, though I have another similar slightly less lucrative option on the table from another job which I know has good quality of life benefits and that I know lots of people in, so I dont have to take it though I am leaning towards doing so at this point for various reasons.Assistant: Signing bonus is a fairly standard offering.Also, if company stock is on the table thats negotiable.Definitely get something in writing. None of this is real until you have an actual offer letter so act accordingly. Human: Interesting. Ive never had a signing bonus. I wonder if that is more of a US thing? Might be possible given its a US company.A decent chunk of company stock is already included. As with everything I could ask for more, but its already quite a reasonable bundle so tossing up whether its worth pushing them further on that front. It will be a USD equivalent amount in presumably US domiciled stock so I might be able to angle something based on exchange rates or current vs future value, though as with everything stock based its a bet either way as to whether a volume of stocks is better than a fixed dollar value.  <response>: When I got my most recent job, I negotiated an extra 50k plus got a signing bonus, got bought out of my equity in last company and my bonus as well which was more than half my comp, even though I started in October they gave me a guaranteed bonus for full year by repeatedly using the phrase you know Im excited about this job but youre leaving me in a position where on day one Im only 85 excited the percentage changed throughout the negotiation. I dont know I found that very effective - they were asking me to work a lot more hours and really wanted me so that worked out in my favor. FWIW just because I feel like there are some gender stereotypes out there I am a female, i think that played a part just because they didnt expect me to ask and I did. My boyfriend sat with me while I was on the phone for each convo and said he could never do that.Long story short, you dont get anything you dont ask for. Theyll make it clear when youre asking for too much, dont be afraid to find the line. Be confident, test the waters. Realize you have to be a little more perceptive than you normally are to cues - youre negotiating, dont fuck it up and dont lose. If they really want you theyll fight for you and its SOOO much harder to ask for more money when youre already there although I have tips on that too
