Heuristics

  • ●Lead with scope, impact, and market evidence — not feelings or fairness arguments
  • ●Anchor high but with a defensible number (cite levels.fyi, peer benchmarks, or a competing offer)
  • ●Separate the ask from the relationship — "I love this team AND I want to be paid at market"
  • ●Have a BATNA: know what you'll do if the answer is no
  • ●Trade for non-cash if cash is blocked: title, scope, RSU refresh, learning budget
  • ●Silence is a tool — after stating your number, stop talking

Best Fit Scenarios

  • ●I want a 15% raise but I don't know how to open the conversation
  • ●I have a competing offer and I'm not sure how to use it without sounding threatening
  • ●I asked for a raise last quarter and got a vague "let's revisit" — how do I push?
  • ●I need to negotiate up an offer letter without losing the offer

Helps With

Practice the opening 60 seconds

The first sentence of a comp ask is usually the worst. Rehearse it until it sounds natural.

Handle "we don't have budget"

The most common pushback. Practice three different responses without getting flustered.

Negotiate non-cash compensation

Title, scope, equity refresh, remote flexibility — practice trading when cash is locked.

Hold silence after stating a number

Most people fill the silence and negotiate against themselves. Practice not doing that.

Boundaries

  • Simulator only — does not reflect any real company policy, compensation band, or manager
  • Not legal advice on employment terms, non-competes, or severance
  • Output meters are vibes-based estimates from an LLM, not a real psychological model
