I wish this was a straight-forward discussion because I see our male counterparts doing this so well. But unfortunately it isn't.
And there are statistics to back this up: Women will generally accept the first offer they receive, in comparison to men who will negotiate almost anything to do with the offer:
- pay progression
- path to the promotion
- additional support, e.g. more team hires
I'd love to hear your views on whether you would say YES to the first offer you get upon a promotion/new job offer?
If so, what's the best way to do so without looking like a complainer?
If not, WHY?
