Typically the investment is a small percentage of the first year increase in compensation. For startups, we take into account that equity isn't liquid. You can always jump on a free 30 minute call: feelvalued.co
Great info! Do you have checklists for core steps? I only have 3 lists, pre interview, post ingterview, negotiation. But I feel it is very dated, no 30-60-90, no title and level check.
I had the level check discussion, but should have done it with the skip level, because the manager just said that VP will move the req to another country if the grade needs to be raised. Not sure if VP actually thought so.
Great question! 1) 2 years and many more negotiations later. Many folks need to know you can still negotiate in this market. 2) Insights and steps are laid out differently based on what we find candidates understand better. 3) Special terms we didn't cover before - like equity and severance protections and executive-level negotiation topics. 4) Because to get the message out you have to say the same thing 100s of times! But I hope you'll get something fresh out of this! 5) Aakash brings a few of his own takes, too, from being a VP and running one of the biggest Product Substack newsletters on careers.
@@ColinLate Excellent, thanks Colin! Next question: How would things change if you have an existing offer from a different company, and you are negotiating a raise at your current company?
Great question! In most (not all) cases, if you interviewed elsewhere and got an offer, it usually means your current job is not a place you will be staying long-term. Studies show people leave 6-12 months later if they accept their current company's counter offer to save them - their manager looks at them with less trust and they are disengaged, only staying for the paycheck short-term. Now, maybe you absolutely LOVE your current job, but wish the compensation was higher. If you haven't brought up dissatisfaction with your current role scope/pay with your manager, it will be challenging to all of a sudden say you have another job offer and expect them to keep you for anything other than gaining enough time to recruit your replacement. In some cases, you can use your current company's counter offer to negotiate up the other external offer sometimes, but many companies discount your current company's counter. Again, a very personal and nuanced question that requires a lot of context. If you are in that situation and struggling to figure it out, feel free to grab 30 mins of our time feelvalued.co

This was epic!
Thanks for having me on! Hoping this helps motivate more people to negotiate what they are really valued (safely).

You can always ask for time with the VP after
How is this video different from the other video you made on this exact same topic?
