Hi SheCoders,
Every week, someone in our community lands a job offer and sends us a version of the same message. "Is this good? Should I ask for more? I don't want to seem greedy."
We understand that feeling completely. You work so hard to get to the offer, and then right at the finish line, the moment that pays off most, so many of us freeze. Not because we lack nerve, but because we're not sure what fair actually looks like.
Here's the thing we wish more people knew. Negotiating your salary isn't an argument you have to win because it's actually just a conversation, and the person with the clearest information is usually the one who leads it. The problem is never confidence, nor not having the numbers.
