Joe was wonderful to work with. I only wish I had used this service earlier in my career. I know now that during previous negotiations I left a huge amount of money on the table. Joe helped me increase my initial offer by $75K. Working with him also reduced the stress of what is typically an agonizing process for me. I learned a lot and wouldn't hesitate to hire him again.

My negotiation coach at levels.fyi exceeded my expectations in every way! With their expert guidance, I secured a salary increase of over 15% and garnered maximum value for my level at Meta. His openness in presenting various options and patiently walking me through the entire process was invaluable. A huge thanks for their dedication and professionalism! I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to excel in negotiations.

Randy helped me a lot to get the best offer possible. Instant response, great guidelines of how when you need to do. If someone asks me I do it one more time - yes, if someone asks me can I recommend this service - yes. Definitly worth it.

I was in already one step into offer negotiations when I realized the offer was way lower than company specific benchmark. It is really hard for job seekers to stay calm and negotiate for the offer you're worth in this hard employer's job market. Since recruiters on the other side are professional negotiators, I decided to call for help. Randy jumped in straight, learned about my situation and helped drafting comms to the recruiter on the same day. All done in timely manner and extremely professionally. The communication and negotiation strategy chosen worked perfectly. I got numbers in my offer bumped to what I expected and I signed the offer satisfied. I also greatly appreciated Randy's consistent engagement as he was keeping actively checking my progress, motivating and providing insights.

I am extremely satisfied with what Randy was able to do for me. He is very responsive and coached me thoughtfully through out the negotiation and decision making process. This made things less stressful for me. I had multiple offers with different timelines which made things hard to manage. I know I needed some professional help but the end result is beyond my expectation and the salary increase from the negotiation is something I would never pull off by myself.

I can't speak highly enough of Joe's assistance throughout my negotiation process. From our very first call, he came up with a smart strategy using my two offers, which led to a much better deal. He was highly responsive; I found myself seamlessly texting him and HR representatives with minimal delay, which expedited the negotiation process tremendously. Joe provided clear direction on when and what to communicate, as well as how to reinforce my leverage effectively. I learned a lot from him, and the outcome surpassed my expectations!

My coach did an excellent job. They were able to respond quickly to any of my questions and got me above my negotiating target in just two quick rounds of negotiation. I learned a lot on how to word negotiation emails to put you in the best possible position given where you are at with your other offers, even if you don't have a firm one to start with.

I'm so happy I used levels.fyi. Randy helped me negotiate a salary increase of 60K! I never expected to receive such an increase. Randy helped me craft emails to negotiate my offer and promptly responded to all my questions/emails (in less than 10 minutes). I would highly recommend him to anyone!

The recruiter really helped me understand the job market and my particular scenario. She was really quick and prompt with her responses so that we could meet my timeline constraints. As a result, we were able to work collectively and land a really good job offer.

I'm pretty happy with the service since Randy helped to increase the offer and made me feel not stressed about the negotiation process in this market condition plus my specific situation. Which tells me that Levels have experienced coaches to help in any case.

Randy was incredibly professional and knowledgeable when it comes to negotiation. He was extremely responsive, and I think the longest that I had to wait to hear back from him via email was 20 minutes. I was thoroughly impressed at the amount of knowledge that he had about the negotiation/interview process and how to maximize the levers of my current situation. I really appreciate that Randy focused first and foremost on what I wanted to get out of my job hunt and negotiations.

I can't recommend Randy highly enough for his extraordinary professionalism and expertise in the negotiation process. In a climate where flexibility in total compensation adjustments was notably tough, Randy's dedication and negotiation skills truly stood out. He worked tirelessly to advocate for an increase in my total compensation package. Despite facing external constraints and a challenging negotiation environment, Randy's expertise shone through. He successfully secured $60K for me, a testament to his remarkable negotiation prowess and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for his clients. Randy's quick, responsive communication style was a constant reassurance throughout the process. He explored every possible avenue for negotiation, demonstrating his in-depth knowledge and understanding of the intricacies involved. His ability to secure significant additional benefits under such tight conditions was impressive and greatly appreciated. I am immensely grateful for Randy's unwavering support and guidance. His efforts not only led to a successful outcome in my negotiations but also made the process far less stressful than it could have been. For anyone in need of a knowledgeable, responsible, and effective negotiator, especially in challenging times, Randy is undoubtedly the go-to professional. Thank you, Randy, for your extraordinary efforts. Your work made a significant difference, and I look forward to the opportunities that your can bring out to others.

Sara's exceptional negotiating skills and support were immensely helpful. Sara's prompt responsiveness in setting up a meeting on the same day I purchased the service was amazing. Sara was able to provide me with all the necessary information, and more importantly, she instilled confidence in me to negotiate a $20,000 increase in my total compensation for my mid-level position.

My coach Sara Abdel has helped me get 20% more total compensation for my first year. She is very responsive, and patient and provides clear guidance about how to react to each step. She can fully leverage my advantages in the email templates and help me draft a convincing story to move the needle!

I worked with Karis as my negotiator, who was top notch. Karis gave me the confidence and structure to negotiate my offer, and was super helpful with advice and reassurance throughout the process. I wholeheartedly recommend Levels as an investment in your career; it's far easier to secure the kind of bump (almost 20%!) I was able to get with Karis's help now than after you're hired.

+$15,000

12 / 2023

Karis was extremely informative during all of our video calls and email interactions. She provided a recap after our initial video call and continued to be very responsive via email to help with my negotiation for an offer. She prepped me on different scenarios that may arise and because of that I felt more confident going into the conversations with the recruiter with the negotiation. Karis went above and beyond to help me increase the offer even helped me with a negotiation email on a weekend. Appreciate Karis' assistance and helping increase my offer.

Randy was great to work with throughout the negotiation process. He scheduled the introductory chat within 24 hours of my signing up for the service, walked me through the different negotiation levers available on hand, and was very prompt with his replies to my questions. His advice helped me increase my overall total compensation by quite a decent amount and I would wholeheartedly recommend his service to my peers.

Elle was absolutely fantastic! I knew that I wanted to negotiate, but her advice and tactics gave me the confidence I needed to communicate effectively with the recruiter and get the offer I was seeking. She knew exactly what to say, when to say it, and even wrote out a sample response for me. I'd recommend her to anyone!

11 / 2023

I can't thank Randy enough for his helping negotiating my offer. He was extremely on top of everything, and supportive along the way. I have negotiated before, but without professional assistance. This blew my past experiences out of the water. I felt confident, and knew with certainty that what I was asking for what an appropriate amount. So happy I was able to work with Randy and get what I wanted within 24 hours.

The session was extremely helpful, the coach described what I might expect during the recruiting process and did very thorough research; everything went exactly as they outlined it, and I was very happy with the outcome.

The greatest value in having a seasoned pro Sara always within one text message away is the fact that I get to validate my own opinions on how to proceed with the negotiation. Without Sara, I would have been less "daring" in asking for the stuff that I did ask for.

+$155,000

10 / 2023

The session with Randy was very helpful, we had to go back and forth with Meta and provide extra datapoints for Meta to increase the offer from the starting point. Randy did a great job responding to my questions in a timely manner and helping me craft emails with winning strategy. Overall, I am very happy with the way things turned out and would highly recommend him.

Randy was key for my successful negotiations with Google. He took the time to understand my priorities and goals and tailored all the negotiation process around it. He helped me anchoring our ask at a high point, and at the end of the negotiation he helped driving an additional 20K TC increase over Google’s “final” offer.

If you feel even remotely shaky about negotiating an offer, get this service. You can thank me later. As a candidate, there are often a lot of pressures working against you that make taking a "good enough" offer seem like the best course of action, and my personal circumstances were pushing my nerves into overdrive. From day 1, Randy was *understanding, responsive, and thorough*: taking in and leveraging all aspects of my situation to determine the best way forward. Along with the tailored responses he provided, we were able to push my offer from "good enough" to "amazing", way beyond where I would have dared to try on my own. The service pays for itself and then some, it's that simple.

I recently had the privilege of working with an offer negotiation coach from levels.fyi, and my experience was nothing short of stellar. Right from the beginning, I was struck by the coach's fast response times, ensuring that I never felt left in the dark. Their depth of knowledge was evident, showcasing inside insights that one wouldn't easily find elsewhere. But what truly stood out were the creative ideas brought forth during our sessions. These ideas not only challenged me to think differently but also played a pivotal role in helping me land a significantly higher offer. Throughout the entire process, the coach remained respectful, making sure that all my concerns were addressed. For anyone on the fence about hiring a negotiation coach, I'd say: go for it! With levels.fyi, you're not just getting guidance; you're gaining a strategic partner who genuinely roots for your success.

I was hesitant about hiring a negotiation coach because I felt that I already knew a lot, but I have absolutely no regrets after working with Levels.fyi. Emiko was super affable throughout, and, despite facing a relatively inflexible offer situation, he helped me increase my total annual compensation by $12.5k. I came in with prior knowledge about negotiating techniques, but I was so grateful to have Emiko's extra support. He was amazing at helping me craft emails that were polite but firm and he acted as my thought partner in figuring out how (and when!) to make my asks. Most of all, Emiko helped calm my anxieties so that I could communicate confidently during the process. We left nothing on the table.

+$13,000

Honestly everything was great. Randy was straight to the point and had insightful answers to all of my questions! I was able to get an increase of 13k on my annual salary! He was also super responsive and would respond in less than ten minutes. Very happy!

I had the opportunity to work with levels.fyi while negotiating my job offer at Apple, and my experience was quite positive. I was paired with Timi, who provided invaluable assistance throughout the negotiation process. Timi not only helped me draft a strong email template to present my case but also guided me in effectively highlighting the details of my competing job offer. I also want to express my gratitude to Brian, who was consistently responsive to all my inquiries and played a significant role in drafting follow-up emails for both potential employers. I am thankful for the assistance I received from levels.fyi during my job offer negotiation at Apple. Their guidance was instrumental in achieving a favorable outcome, and I recommend their services to anyone navigating the complexities of offers and negotiations in the tech industry.

It was great! The negotiator made me feel at ease and help reduce the anxiety.

Sarah was very response and provided a lot of info. Before booking the service, I was going to negotiate myself and ask for a small signing bonus since I thought everything else was "good enough." Sarah drafted me a professional e-mail and I ended up getting an increase in base salary and larger sign on bonus than I would have asked for! Her email was simple yet professional and it did the job...my recruiter whom I was negotiating with even mentioned specific details from the letter she drafted in our call which highlighted how good of a communication device it was.

The whole process from start to finish working with Joe at Levels.fyi was phenomenal. I had what I suspected was an incoming verbal offer come into play with only 2 days notice, and even though there were not available sessions, the Levels team worked to set me up with a coach within the next day. Joe was very plugged into the space I was interviewing in (autonomous vehicles/robotics/ML/AI). He had a detailed and up-to-date understanding of comp levels and bands, internal company processes and dynamics that lead to decisions around comp, how to handle and align multiple incoming offers, and ultimately how to put myself in the best position both presently and with consideration of my future career trajectory. I’ve been raving about this service to all of my friends and I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Kacy, my Senior Technical Recruiter, was exceptional and the perfect teammate to have on my side through this process. She was incredibly efficient, knowledgeable, and played a strategic role throughout my negotiations. Kacy's skill set is top-class and she was a valuable teacher, illuminating the finer points of the recruitment process. Investing in this service was one of the best financial decisions I've made. If you're considering this service, don't. Simply dive in and witness the transformative experience yourself - with Kacy at your side, you're in the best hands.

Elle is extremely knowledgeable about the tech industry. Her insights into the negotiation process and compensation bands are fueled by both market data and personal experience, making her extremely adept at navigating the complex relationship between numbers and emotions when negotiating an offer. She guided me to negotiate a five-figure change in my total compensation, which truly will make a huge difference in my life!

I cannot overstate the tremendous impact Randy had on my journey to secure a L5 SWE offer from Google. Thanks to Randy's expertise and support, I achieved a $170K increase in my compensation package. Right from the start, Randy demonstrated a deep understanding of the industry and accurately assessed my market value. With this knowledge, Randy skillfully crafted a highly effective and thoughtful email template that served as the foundation for my negotiation strategy. Throughout the process, Randy was consistently responsive, promptly addressing all my inquiries and concerns. I highly recommend Randy to anyone seeking expert assistance in navigating complex job negotiations.

So glad I've decided to use this service! Catherine Amanda, my negotiator was great all along. Although I appreciated the initial call, it was the almost immediate warm & kind follow-up after I most appreciated. She was great at helping draft responses and overall incredible emotional support in the nerve wracking process that is negotiating a job offer. I would 500% chose this again and I recommend it wholeheartedly particularly to those going through this for the first time (I have a long career, but this was my first time moving companies).

Everything has been phenomenal. Sara not only did help me get a higher offer but also taught me an important skill that I would be able to use in future negotiations.

Even for the seasoned negotiator, this is a no-brainer. No value, no cost. In exchange you get an unbiased third party to push you when it feels uncomfortable. This negotiation is too important to go solo. I won't ever again.

The session with levels.fyi was just awesome. I worked with Joe and he was very patient in understanding my job offer situation and prior conversations with my recruiter. He acted quickly in drafting a plan and guiding through how I can negotiate based on my current TC. His draft email in next 2 hours after the call was just neat/crisp and he clearly talked through the touch points needed for negotiation. Joe was also very supportive in responding over email and jumping on any follow up calls. I certainly recommend as the expert to reach out to for negotiation!

Randy was extremely helpful throughout the process by answering all my questions, providing great advice and being super responsive. This experience exceeded my expectations overall. I learned a lot about the do's and don'ts in negotiations and was able to get a $30K increase on my strongest offer.

Randy was my coach and he superbly led me through the entire (foreign to me) tech recruiter hiring and negotiation process. Despite having over a decade of experience, I had never negotiated total comp before and it was so valuable to have someone as experienced as him to coach me through how to approach discussions with recruiters as well as answer all my questions I felt embarrassed to ask anyone else. Thanks to Randy's specific, actionable guidance, I deployed his negotiation strategy which led to me landing a new role a full level above my previous TC!

+$47,000

Every call I had with Randy was helpful. I wasn't sure how to navigate who should give numbers first, how to approach talking to two companies at the same time, etc. It also relieved a lot of the anxiety about having an offer rescinded after asking for more compensation. I was impressed about Randy's knowledge of what the market conditions were for my given role and company I was interviewing for. I also appreciated that Randy's email templates for how to engage with recruiters, as it made it much easier for me to have confidence to communicate with them.

+$14,000

3 / 2023

Randy was extremely responsive and provided great suggestions for emailing my recruiter which were tailored to my situation. My initial offer was on the high side for my role, but the service was worth it for the increase in base salary alone, plus we also increased RSUs offered!

+$5,000

3 / 2023

One of the best services I've ever paid for. Emiko helped me write the best counter offer email I have ever used. Every time I emailed and schedule calls the response was almost instantaneous. I recommend this service to anyone working on their application process all the way to the offer process.

+$115,000

Randy was very helpful. He helped me gain the confidence I needed to ask for an increase, and crafted an email that just needed minor tweaks before being sent over to the recruiter. The process was smooth and this was a great investment.

+$22,000

I think the service is awesome. I honestly didn't even know where to start in terms of negotiating since I didn't have competing offers. On top of that, I was negotiating compensation offer from a Series D startup for which there wasn't much public data. Elle, my negotiator, did a great job of pulling as much comparative data possible from other similar-ish companies. In the end, I am confident that with Elle's help we were able to negotiate the best possible offer from the company.

Kacy went above and beyond to help me navigate the difficult, layoff-ridden market of early 2023. She confidently and smartly pushed for a 10% increase in the total compensation I was offered - an 18x return on investment! Beyond that, she helped me with the team-matching process, understanding contract details, and calming my nerves.

+$205,000

Randy did a fantastic job helping me negotiate a significant increase in offer, 60% more RSU, and 20% more in the base for about 200K more total yearly compensation. Randy was able to help craft a good strategy given the data points I had to work with, and help put together key messages and talking points for the recruiter that was critical to making this happen. Randy was very responsive and focused on helping me achieve my goal of joining the company at compensation on the very high end for my level.

Joe negotiated a $125,000 increase in my year. His advice was solid and had the desired outcome.

Timi is so helpful and knowledgable. The session was really eye opening to me as I had no competing offers and Timi told me that we could still increase total TC by quite a bit. I don't have any prior experience of negotiating and Timi helped me keep some answers ready based on what could happen in the initial calls with my recruiter. He also helped me draft an email response to ask for more. Personally, I did not expect too much increase as I did not have any competing offers, but I was quite surprised when I got a total of $55k TC increase in first year. I would 10/10 recommend levels.fyi to anyone who has never done any negotiating before. This is an entire different world to me. The ROI of this service is amazing coz you take this learning and can use it in future as well.

When the initial offer for the company I wanted to join came in lower than I was expecting I didn't know how to respond. I had already shared my other offer and I didn't have much leverage. Randy helped me strategize and put together a very professional counter that ended up working. I am thrilled to get my top choice offer to this level and feel really good about my compensation going into a new job! Thank you Randy for coaching me through the strategy and putting together numbers for a counter that ended up being successful.

Having Timi as a negotiator was like having a big brother behind your back to support you with useful industry information and morale. I felt very confident speaking to my recruiter because of the tools and information Timi gave me. I learnt a lot of tricks and tips for negotiating salary and gained a lot of confidence through the process. Timi was very prompt, gave detailed explanations for each step we took in the negotiations. Negotiating is a very tough task for me and this service provided me with the validation and strength that I needed!

I was a little nervous since I wasn't negotiating with a FAANG company like most of the reviewers and wasn't sure if it would be as effective, but I'm so glad I took a chance. My initial offer seemed pretty good from where I was coming from but Erin looked at all the numbers and helped me draft a response to make the case for why an increase would be appropriate and give a reasonable range. Thankfully we had our initial meeting just prior to the call with the offer so she had coached me on how to respond during the call. The total increase was around $55k which is just amazing to me. I was terrified of sending the email to ask for more and could hardly believe they agreed to it, but for Erin it was just all in a day's work. She was extremely responsive and even accommodating outside regular hours since we were working from opposite coasts. I hope to be in this job a good long time, but won't hesitate to use this service if I find myself on the hunt again someday.

I think the service is amazing. I honestly didn't even know where to start in terms of negotiating. My negotiator took the time to really understand what I wanted and gather all the details. He crafted several responses which ultimately led to about a $36k increase in total compensation. He explained when we should email vs call, how to hold my tone, and the logic behind his responses. I'm very happy with my ROI.

Timi is fantastic! He reviewed my resume some months back that helped me break into Product Management. And this time around he helped me get a strong offer from Amazon. I had never negotiated on a job offer before. He helped me overcome my nerves by reassuring and providing a script to tackle different scenarios. He is very knowledgeable and realistic. My offer landed exactly on the 'Most likely' scenario worked out by him! He is very prompt in his response too. Thank you very much, Timi!

The session with Taylor was incredibly helpful. He helped me draft responses to recruiters that were professional, polished, and made my argument effectively. He walked through my various options with me, which helped me make decisions between different offers and on how to push certain offers forward. He was also a great sounding board for me to check what parts of the process were typical or atypical, and to sanity check my responses before I hopped on the phone with recruiters or hiring managers. Working with Taylor made me much more confident and comfortable in the negotiation process.

Randy was attentive, supportive, knowledgeable and encouraging. He helped me gain confidence in my value. The techniques and insights he provided were invaluable. I was apprehensive before the first conversation but Randy immediately put me at ease and began to demonstrate the value of this service. He rapidly responded to communications and none of our conversations were rushed. He genuinely cared and i felt it! I will take these lessons with me for the rest of my career. The levels.fyi website rapidly became my go to research location. It has a wealth of valid information and very useful functionality. Randy & levels.fyi thank you for this life changing experience!

My advisor Karis was awesome. At first, I felt it is difficult to increase the TC by 100k in this tough market, but Karis made it. She was very supportive and strategic. She anticipated multiple possible responses from recruiter and prepared suitable responses for each possible scenario. I sincerely recommend Karis for this advisory role. Thank you so much !

First of all I was able to quickly find the session for the next day, which is invaluable due to the time pressure. During the session, my negotiator went through the process from the recruiter point of view and elaborated all the details quick and efficient. Everything was up to the point, no empty words. From my standpoint, I was able to think out loud, discuss, get feedback, and receive a few important suggestions. After the call I received a template email. With the strategy laid out, my package bumped up for 50k/year. The negotiation session price totally worth it. I'm going to use the service next time and recommend it to friends.

It was incredibly valuable to work with Randy. His advice was clear and actionable, his email template was easy to adapt and he gave me very useful insider information on what motivates the recruiting team. Working with a coach gave me the confidence to submit numbers way above anything I would have suggested myself, and stopped me over-thinking once I had hit "send"!

All facets of the negotiation process were outlined, including not just compensation numbers, but also peripheral details like time off in between jobs. For each request that I wanted to make, Joe gave a great perspective on how much we could ask for, what was reasonable to ask for, how to ask for it, etc. Plenty of help on constructing these requests in a way that made sense to the parties I was working with. There's a lot of subtleties that I simply have yet to discern due to my own priorities and biases, but the reality here is that Levels has among the best datasets for navigating these types of situations. Joe was able to help me overshoot my target. Thanks Joe!

Randy helped demistify the negotiation process, and empowered me to navigate with clarity and surefootedness. He is very knowledgeable, and provides personalized and effective advice. Working with him on a Meta offer was an excellent learning experience, and helped increase my RSUs by 22.2% and base by 4.3%. His responses to my queries were prompt and effective. Going through such a process helps me start my new role with joy and peace of mind.

Levels FYI negotiation was 100% worth the price. Negotiators do a great job of understanding where the offer comes in and how much room for negotiation there is. They craft smart and well-thought-out emails and do take your input into account. They are able to understand a company's salary bands, what competing offers would look like, and provide great talking points for your conversations with recruiters.

Kimberlee was excellent from the start! She asked so many great questions in our initial call to understand my situation, and gain context that would be relevant for negotiations. She helped me write really professional emails in an influential yet graceful tone of voice and shared examples of "ideal" wordings/responses to strategically navigate specific scenarios. On top of that, she was super responsive anytime I needed help drafting an email response to a recruiter's question, or helping me anticipate what to expect and prepare for a phone conversation. Negotiations can be really stressful sometimes when you have outstanding offer deadlines and she really made me feel like I had a supportive advocate on my side. I would 10/10 recommend her and the Levels.fyi negotiation service to any of my friends in tech! For context - By the time that I engaged Kimberlee I was already partway through my negotiation process but having challenging navigating multiple offers from a few companies that don't have big brand names with one company that did have brand weight. While the actual dollar increase from my negotiations post-engaging her wasn't impressively high in this case (because I was halfway through), Kimberlee was invaluable in supporting me to get across the finish line and helping me make the best decision at the offer acceptance stage.

Randy has a ton of experience in terms of what the market can sustain and current trends which helped me craft a convincing argument to quickly negotiate a higher compensation package.

Levels.fyi has changed the course of my life. Companies have all the information and information is power. Levels.fyi changes that power dynamic and empowers the job seeker. I first learned of Levels.fyi about 5 years ago. A friend invited me for coffee and then explained that I was likely underpaid using the data from Levels.fyi. At that time, I thought I was paid well but Levels.fyi gave me new insight. From Levels.fyi, I learned that a mid-level engineer at a large tech firm could earn more than an executive at a small company. Using the data on Levels.fyi as inspiration, I changed about how I thought about my career. In the 5 years since, I’ve taken several different roles at companies that didn’t make the list at Levels.fyi, but the Levels.fyi data was always a helpful reference. After all this time, last month, I interviewed with AWS and they made me an offer. Yay! I immediate signed up for Level’s negotiation service. I have a strong believe that paid advisors – accountants, lawyers, other specialists – should pay for themselves. Levels.fyi data had already shown itself to be the best out there so the negotiation service was a no brainer. Levels.fyi connected me with Joe. Within hours, Joe and I had a 30 minute call where he explained the process. I sent him the offer and all the other data he requested. Joe told me what to say to the AWS recruiter who -- within 4 hours -- increased their offer $100k/year. For $2k, a 30-minute phone call, a little bit of prep, and 2 emails; the payback was $400k (over 4 years). Wow! This result far exceeded my expectations but is a testament to what a knowledgeable professional advisor can do. And even if I hadn’t seen this type of increase, I would have been happy for the validation and peace of mind I was being paid fairly for the role, company, experience, and location. Thanks Joe!!

Randy was absolutely amazing. Not only did he help me negotiate the final offer and have a massive $200K increase per year but also from the initial conversation with the recruiters, he helped me push for a M2 leveling at Meta and L7 leveling at Google. FAANGs have a habit of down leveling you. Thanks to his advice I managed to be considered at the right level, which pushed my initial offer much higher than it would have been. It's a no brainer: take a levels.fyi coach. The return on investment is here and it personally gave me peace of mind to focus on interviewing. Randy not only delivered but he also supported me throughout and helped me lower my stress to focus on smashing the interview. I strongly strongly recommend Randy! He absolutely knocked it out of the park.

I paid for the service when there was no offer yet. Therefore, my interaction with Randy dragged on for a couple of months. In total, we held two phone calls. Very detailed emails were also sent. Randy gave advice not only on negotiation, but also in general on the strategy of approach to my choice of work for further career growth. For a person who has recently arrived in the US, these tips were very valuable to me. I am very grateful for the help! I increased the offer by at least $50,000. It’s hard to say for sure now, since some salary items are calculated not for 1 year, but for 4 years.

Joe is knowledgeable, experienced, and an amazing partner to have on your team. He guided me throughout the process of negotiating multiple offers. For each of my interactions with the recruiters, Joe coached me about exactly what to say, what information to obtain, and the rationale for it. He drafted carefully worded emails for each of my counter offers and asks. Equally importantly, Joe explained each step of the process from the recruiters' point of view and helped keep my nerves. I would highly recommend Joe's help to anyone looking to offload comp negotiation to a professional. It will likely result in the optimal outcome, with absolute peace of mind.

Randy was super helpful. Most importantly he gave me confidence that it's fine to ask for more repeatedly.

Levels.fyi was an extremely eye-opening experience, starting with just browsing the compensation data on the website and then all the way through the engagement. Randy was instrumental in helping me achieve a total compensation well above my expectations. His knowledge of the market and process gave me the confidence to hold out and counteroffer an already excellent initial offer, without being scared to do so. His strategy of what to ask for and how to ask for it made the other side eager to get additional approvals to close the deal quickly. It’s amazing how a good strategy and a couple of well crafted emails resulted in over $400k of additional compensation over a 4 year period. The ROI on the cost of this engagement is better and more immediate than any other investment I’ve ever made.

I paid $650 for a $63K TC return - talk about the best return on investment ever; wow, just wow!! This service was fantastic (and I've already recommended it to all of my friends) not just because of the financial return, but also the confidence instilled by Janet (my negotiation coach) throughout the entire process that you are worth WAY MORE than you think. I consider myself a decent negotiator, but it's just a different game when it comes to tech recruiting; to have a negotiation coach who is also a tech recruiter and thus knows the game is extremely invaluable. To expand more on why this was a life changing service, Janet started off with an ambitious question: what's your north star / dream offer? I threw a number that felt viscerally uncomfortable, but Janet did not waver: "let's go for it", which gave me all the confidence that this number was attainable (tl;dr, I was only 5K off from this number at the end, so confidence in your worth is key to a successful negotiation). And off we went - the negotiations game began! To not belabor this review with unnecessary details, where Janet played a pivotal role was all the small details. When to disclose/leverage compensation information; how to communicate deflection for recruiter questions that don't ultimately serve you; how to leverage competing offers with integrity. I communicated with her almost every day for a week and would share with her my recruiter emails & get feedback on ideas, and she responded very quickly. All in all, Janet and the Levels.FYI team were the ultimate partner-in-crime, from defining the negotiation strategy all the way down to the execution & communication. Highly highly recommend!!

Ryan was very responsive and made sure I got the instant help to handle my negotiation as effectively as possible. Many people might argue that the what our coach tell us to do are something we all can find online. I totally agree with that. However, a coach will help you decide the right strategic move at the right moment, the right things to say/write in an email, the reasonable amount to ask for and have the right expectation for your negotiation. Everything based on your personal profile and unique situation. Ryan has done an excellent job to help me based on what I shared. With a new candidate who has never negotiated like me, this proves to be very valuable.

Ryan validated my concern that the Google offer I received was extremely low and gave me the confidence and words to negotiate for something comparable to what I saw on Levels. I didn't have a competing offer and was coming from a job with no RSUs, so I didn't have much leverage; however, using parts of Ryan's email helped me craft a persuasive argument that Google accepted. Seeing numbers this high made my stomach churn with equal parts excitement and dread that I was getting taken advantage of, and I'm thankful that Ryan was so supportive. Maybe I could've asked for more, but it's a number that I'm happy with for my first big tech job.

By the time I met with her I had already gotten a verbal offer so I was expecting an official offer.

Ashley was helpful and responsive throughout the entire process. We first scheduled a call a few weeks before my onsites to go over an overall plan. She suggested rescheduling some of the specific dates to time the offers better for certain companies (ex Google and Amazon usually take longer than Meta and smaller companies). She told me exactly what to say in the call with the recruiters and which questions to ask. Once the offers started rolling in we had a shared google doc with drafts for emails to send out to each recruiter asking for more compensation. We used Amazon's offer to drive up Meta's best and final, then presented it to Google and pressed twice to get the first-year total comp from 225 to 265 to 340K. I was so surprised it almost felt unbelievable that it was even possible. Good interview performance helped a ton but when it comes to negotiating your final comp, the price for a good negotiator has stupidly high ROI and I would highly recommend it to anyone who doesn't hate money.

Jason helped me a lot, not just in increasing my first-year total compensation by a significant amount but also in learning about how the recruiter-compensation negotiations process works. Before, I had taken negotiations courses and was taught to not share information about my best alternative because my negotiations counterpart would be incentivized to bid $1 higher than whatever my alternative is. Hence, when companies asked me what I wanted and what my numbers were, I was always hesitant to share. Jason taught me to reframe my thinking because we would be creating an auction where the multiple companies I had offers from would be bidding for me. In an auction, the highest bidder amount is always public, so I followed that approach. I had to be reminded 3 additional times by Jason to advertise the highest bid when I received it because it did not feel natural to me. I'm really glad he did though because the auction approach to salary negotiations helped me get very close to the top of the band for a Meta E4 offer.

Thank you so much Timi and Levels.fyi

Elle was absolutely vital in my negotiation with Amazon. I had no idea what to ask or say specifically - even though there are a lot of articles and videos out there and I did my fair share of research, having the insight and knowledge of an actual recruiter was the best thing I could've done for myself. The offer went up $34k from beginning to end and I couldn't be more thrilled to start my new role.

Timi was my negotiation guardian angel. I was a bundle of nerves when we first met, and he immediately allayed my fears and helped me get in the right frame of mind to be successful. We prepared for the comp conversation before it began, he walked me through how it would go, and then gave me great tips on how to handle the offer after it arrived. Throughout the process, he was extremely responsive and was always available if I had any questions. I can't express how much of a difference it was to have him in my corner. 10 stars out of 5. If you're on the fence, trust me, just sign up already!

I had two very different competing offers for somewhat different roles on very different cost of life cities so negotiation was expected to be hard. Taylor helped me understand the whole negotiation process and what the recruiters could be thinking when comparing these offers against each other. This helped me focus on highlighting the unique qualities of every offer istead of just presenting numbers to the recruiters.

Two words to describe this service: No. Brainer. I have never negotiated a salary this large/complex before and Taylor was there to guide me the whole way. As I was going through the process of negotiation I realized how many times I would have screwed up and gotten less money if Taylor wasn’t there to keep me on track. He knew exactly how Facebook's comp process worked, how hard and when to push, and how to leverage other data to increase the offer. Using this service is money beyond well spent and the increase in comp I got will pay for their service alone many many times over even in just the first month.

I starting working with Taylor early in the interview process. He provided great advice on how to pose myself & communicate the whole way through. I ended up with 4 offers. Following Taylor's advice, all 4 companies gave me substantial comp increases from their initial offer. I ended up accepting a very competitive offer from an amazing company. He was always very quick to respond and fielded all of my questions, no matter how basic. We talked over the phone multiple times and had an email chain that was 75+ messages long.

Karis did a fantastic job coaching me during the offer negotiation stage. It's a pleasure having Karis' support during the offer stage. I learned a lot during this journey. It's not just about the service (position & comp analysis, negotiation strategy), but also perceiving offer negotiation in the more proper way - aside from tc, what we as a candidates value the most. The materials prepared me to be more confident during the negotiation process. Karis never hesitated to reply back to me promptly and hopped onto video calls when I got pressed during negotiation. All I could say is THANK YOU to Karis. Thanks for creating a warm journey to satisfactory career search results.

This is a great service and I highly would recommend it! I think if you're not very experienced with negotiating and you make over 100k, you'll take alot away from this. It's an invaluable service for high earning power individuals, negotiating is a skill like any other. Invest in yourself through a specialized negotiating service like levels! It's the difference between fighting with a machine gun or a bow and arrow.

Very insightful. My coach offered me great negotiation templates that I could use directly to negotiate with recruiters from different companies. The recruiters are REALLY going to go back and give you a higher offer when you speak according to these templates. It's life changing. The recruiters will always say "no no we can't go higher this is the best we can do", but if you provide them with good evidence at the right time, you CAN go higher. And these are the things I would not have known if I hadn't had a coach helping me along the way.

I honestly can't say enough great things about Timi and Levels.fyi. Timi started by breaking down the negotiation process to me and allayed my fears about the company rescinding the offer if I asked for more. He then worked with me to draft the email and also prepared me for the video conversation with the recruiter. With his help I was able to get a 40k increase (per year) plus a 20k sign on bonus. I definitely would've left that on the table without his help.

I appreciated having levels.fyi negotiators available to coach me through job offer negotiations.

Negotiation service from levels.fyi was invaluable in my job search. In such a hot market, it is hard to determine what the market rate is for roles that are in-demand.

During my job search I was very fortunate to have received a few different offers. While this is a great problem to have, it was definitely stressful to navigate the tight timelines, confusing numbers, tricky language, and different expectations for each company. Sara was able to help me at every step of the negotiation process, including how to respond to offers when they're given over the phone, how to manage a company's expectations and timelines, and the actual negotiation of the offer. I ended up increasing my total compensation more than $10,000 as a result of Sara's help, and even better I felt confident and in control while doing so. Would definitely recommend the service to others!

Mackenzie is knowledgeable about the Amazon negotiation process. An initial call to level-set the expectations followed by one other one to review the offer and plan of action for a counter offer was all it was needed - worked like magic.

The strategy call is well worth doing at least once in your career because it'll give you a playbook that you can run everytime to maximize your compensation whenever you make a move. There are multiple opportunities to negotiate and leverage - having it all laid out for you helps you take advantage of each opportunity in the process. Without it, there's a pretty large probability you are leaving money on the table.

Using the negotiation service is a no-brainer. You're losing out on potentially tens of thousands of dollars, or in my case, almost 100k. If you feel anxious, ill prepared, or at a disadvantage negotiating, then I recommend using the service. My negotiator helped educate me on what was coming - the strategy to use in negotiating, what's happening on the other side of the negotiation, and what steps to take for every situation. It was a playbook that I followed step-by-step that helped me get a much higher salary than what was initially offered.

All the sessions with Timi were amazing. He helped me to aim for higher salary. He explained me all the levels and the compensations offered and hence I could negotiate better with the data.

This session was amazing. I loved how responsive and knowledgeable Sarah is. I would highly recommend throwing money at this service, it was extremely profitable for me. The knowledge that Levels has accumulated about the negotiation process helped me yield an additional $100k annually over what I would have been able to negotiate myself. Even just the fact that Levels researches and drafts the negotiation emails is frankly worth the $3000 dollars. I would have spent at least 10 hours trying to research and draft the negotiation emails and I would frankly have done a sub-par job compared with the draft from Levels. At which point its significantly more cost effective to pay experts for this service.

I wasn't sure if I should use this service initially because I had already started negotiating. Timi told me how much to counter, what justification to give, and gave me tips on how to negotiate on the phone.

I highly recommend Levels.FYI not just for maximizing your current offer but also for learning some incredibly valuable skills for the future.

Taylor was very helpful in formulating a strategy and helping me execute on it by answering the many questions I had and preparing me for calls with recruiters; I can safely say that there's no way I would have gotten this much of an increase if not for his assistance. Suffice to say, this service more than paid for itself.

Taylor is an absolute rock star and Levels.fyi negotiation coaching is the real deal. I had a recruiter with over 10 years of tech industry experience in my corner helping me to simultaneously negotiate two offers against each other resulting in > $50k/yr TC increases to both offers. One offer even leveled up the job title/seniority to help meet the compensation goals that Taylor helped articulate!

The email Sarah wrote for me was very strong, and from there, I only had a couple short phone conversations with the recruiter that I had to handle (and Sarah gave me pointers for all of those as well). Before talking to Sarah, I was only planning to ask for 8k base salary increase, but I ended up with 13k base increase plus 10k more equity and a signing bonus.

I had a few questions in mind that I wanted to ask but I was blown away by the wealth of information he provided. It's clear that Philip is a skilled negotiator and is extremely knowledgeable about the recruitment process. Deciding to get more sessions was a no brainer as I progressed to the offer stage. Again, I could not believe how efficient he was in communicating the process to me. Everything I wanted to know was answered in such an efficient and effective way.

Phil was very friendly, knowledgeable, and always responded to my email questions quickly. His guidance was instrumental to my negotiation process. I worked with a particularly challenging "old school" recruiter, and Phil helped give me the confidence to advocate for myself and really push for an increase in base pay as well as a full relocation package and signing bonus. Without Phil's coaching, I'm sure I would have capitulated to the recruiter's pressure and car salesman-like manipulation tactics and ended up accepting my original offer with no increase in compensation.

Natalie went above and beyond and worked with my comfort level and gave me very clear language (word for word) to use with the recruiters both for calls and for emails. She even pre-empted what the recruiter would say to me and she was right every time. She always came prepared to our sessions and was responsive over email and text and answered all of the questions I had. It was clear that she is experienced - she knew exactly how compensation and negotiations work within each company and what the market worth for an individual is based on their background, interviews, competing offers, level, and individual circumstance. I felt confident and prepared walking into each negotiation conversation/email. I would recommend it to anyone, even the strongest of negotiators! We'll be requesting this service, especially Natalie for my spouse's future negotiations too!

The session was incredibly helpful. Sarah guided me through the salary ranges that the employer considers when negotiating, and suggested a range for me to go after. Not only that, but she helped me draft an email to push negotiations forward. My recruiter later thanked me for the email and its clarity, saying that it answered all his questions and made the process faster. In the end, I got the increase I wanted and a sign-on bonus. From my perspective, this service is amazing and worth every penny.

Carlos drafted the negotiation email and answered all my follow-up questions. He guided me step by step on how to response to each of the recruiter emails. He is really professional and responsive.

I had only one session with Dan and it was fantastic. He was able to understand my situation quickly, brought up key points and shared amazing tips. He helped me review the drafts and revise them before sending it to the recruiter and answer all my questions promptly. Recruiter got back within few days with most of the revised changes approved! I highly recommend the service and am really happy that I decided to try the service. Totally worth it!!!

The consultation session was awesome! I got some really good insights into the different ways I could negotiate, the responses I could give, and the compensation range I deserve.

Timi is really helpful even if my request for meeting is very last minute. He helped me to benchmark offers quickly while I was on a fairly tight timeline. Although I've done quite a bit of homework to estimate a salary range myself, it's still really valuable to get more confirmation from a professional, and knowing exactly where to push/and how to push convincingly. Outside of benchmarking compensation package, Timi was also patient in answering my general questions.

The session was extremely helpful. Natalie framed the problem and asked just the right questions to navigate the negotiation, and substantially raised my final comp. Even assuming I would negotiate well for some kind of increase on my own, I am utterly confident that Natalie easily covered the costs of the service with her skills. In addition to the raw numbers, though, Natalie made the whole thing less stressful and more tractable, making me feel better about it (which is also valuable). I very strongly recommend you get in touch with Natalie or her colleagues early in your negotiation; it's basically free value.

I have a habit of undercutting myself when asking for compensation at a new company, on top of that, my new position is in the Bay Area, where I'm unfamiliar with salaries. I hired a levels consultant to help me understand what I should be asking for and how to go about maximizing an offer. Thanks to one 30-minute session with Patrick, the difference between what I would have asked for and what I got in my offer was >$75k in total comp. I cannot overstate how helpful Patrick was in this process. The information he provided was invaluable and will change how I negotiate and value myself in all future negotiations. I will absolutely hire another Levels consultant for any future salary negotiations.

I had three sessions with Carlos and all of them were fantastic. Very practical tips and scripts that made negotiation an easy and predictable conversation for me.

I can't recommend this service enough! My negotiator was very knowledgeable about the negotiation process with all of the companies I had offers from and helped me with writing emails and knowing what to say during phone conversations with recruiters.

It was amazing. I was so anxious and Philip listened, calmed me down and proposed multiple solutions as well as gave me a lot of internal insights he had. He helped me frame the mails as well and most importantly was always there on e-mail support for me. His replies were as swift as they could be, and he took out time on his busiest day as well because I was having an exploding offer issue. Absolutely loved the entire experience. It was really worth every penny spent. As a result I was able to negotiate and bring the offer to a better state, much closer to what I had wanted. I got a gain of 26k GBP to my annual compensation!

I began speaking with a number of negotiation services, including Levels and some competitors. Levels was the only one who genuinely seemed to want to see me succeed (instead of see it as just a transaction). Other services lowballed my estimated compensation - Levels aimed way higher, and we achieved it. Sarah was an absolutely godsend when it came to negotiation with Google. She was kind enough to walk me through the entire negotiation process from start to finish. She gave me some really great tips on "how things work" with Google's negotiations. And most importantly, she gave me the confidence to push hard in negotiations and not give in! I cannot express how great Sarah is - helpful, patient, knowledgable, super responsive. I'm excited to start at Google knowing I negotiated the best offer I could!

If like me you're unsure about what is reasonable, what isn't and you feel shame when asking for more money, do not hesitate and sign up for it. Dan helped me draft emails that I would otherwise never have dared writing on my own due to the stigma around salary negotiation and the feeling of being greedy.

Sarah helped me to draft negotiation email and were very responsive to answer all the question I had.

I highly recommend Sarah to any one who are in the offer negotiation process!

Carlos was very friendly to talk to and knowledgeable about negotiating for applied/research scientists. He helped me work through my offers and understand the situation and options. We worked together to come up with the plans for negotiation next steps. He even helped draft an email to send to the recruiter. I also appreciate it a lot when he helped with some last-day rescheduling of my sessions to fit my timeline. I successfully negotiated all my three offers under Carlos' help, including one that is already high initially. What's more to me out is that I had more peace of mind in negotiating offers because I understood more about how it works on the other side of the table.

Sarah was extremely knowledgeable on compensation structures or ranges from Google, Facebook, Amazon to even startups such as Coinbase, Chime, Stripe etc. Sarah also detailed exactly what to communicate and how and what order to whom for me to negotiate the most optimal compensation given my situation. Her compensation negotiation strategy combined with her in depth knowledge in industry standards lead me to be able to negotiate 44% higher total compensation than my initial offer. I could not have paid for a better service.

The session was very helpful. I was worried that the consultant would try to drag things out or up-sell me. He did neither. He was concise, but thorough, and his advice ended up getting me an additional $20,000 per year in comp. My only quibble was that he told me he would follow up by emailing me additional research material on comp bands, but I never received it. Regardless, the additional material proved unnecessary, and I was more than pleased with the result.

Sarah was AWESOME! She gave me so much HR background information about how salary is calculated. She made me feel confident to ask for an extra $20K for my salary.

I am so glad I invested in Levels.fyi, because I would’ve easily cheated myself out of $20K.

Dan helped me draft an email that was clear and set clear reasons as to why I could ask for changes. Recruiter got back the next day with most of the revised changes approved!

Philip guided me through what was a very enlightening session where he spoke about TC ranges for the given level and what i could ask for.

Dan was super helpful in guiding me through the negotiation strategy and discovered things I missed that could be used as a leverage (e.g. pending options).

Sarah helped me properly negotiate an offer. It was so simple to negotiate an 18% increase in TC. I was frozen without her help.

Overall the sessions were very helpful, I definitely learned some good strategies as well as the general playbook some of these companies follow when negotiating. I paid for three sessions and only used two, but had many exchanges over email/g-chat. The consultant was very willing to give time and advice - over email and even beyond the allotted session time. From my experience the service/data seems more geared towards software engineers (rather than system, research, and/or hardware engineers like myself) and very specifically towards FAANG. I ended up with a number of offers, but all of them were quite far from the target my consultant said would be possible (and far from what peers in similar roles quoted). And after a couple of rounds of negotiation I ultimately hit ceilings that were still quite far off (the one I accepted didn't actually go higher). This may be due to some issues in communication with the consultant, less data/experience with people in my "technical demographic (right out of PhD)," hiring differences due to the pandemic, or some mixture of the above. In the end, the service is still worth it - even if your offer increases only 1%, the service can easily pay for itself. It's definitely still necessary to do your own homework, especially if you don't fit the same demographic as most of the data on the site.

2 / 2021

I am not sure what I would have done if I did not work with Sarah. I know for sure my total comp would have been 100k lower though. Because Sarah is so knowledgeable with FAANG negotiation processes/limits, she created strong game plan for me to negotiate with multiple companies at once to maximize what I can get and ultimately landing on a job of my dream with even dreamier total comp. Thank you so much Sarah and Level.fyi for helping me. I would 1000% recommend the service to anyone. Also, strongly recommend to go for the maximum session you can purchase if you are type of a person like me who struggle with negotiation or doesn't know what to say.

I enjoyed the negotiation service and found it helpful in making a data-driven decision about my salary. I believe the service paid for itself by helping me negotiate a better compensation package.

Stuff I found most helpful: 1.) Better understanding of the fair market rate for my experience level (Ph.D counts for 1-4 yrs of industry experience). It seems I was being significantly underpaid at my last job. 2.) Didn't know that asking for +15% on top of the initial offer usually requires little to no justification. Easiest ""raise"" ever! 3.) Key words & phrases to use during negotiations, like ""If we can get the total compensation in this range, *I am ready to sign today*"".

The negotiation was helpful for reassurance that I was not completely off in what I was going to try. I was pretty much going to do what was suggested, but the negotiator knew the upper bound on equity I could ask for (very useful information). She also drew my attention to trying to bring the base salary up 10K, which I am not sure I was going to try, as well as for the signup bonus. As for doing better, I would have liked a video call with a shared screen. The shared screen would make it easier to follow calculation and understand the numbers.

Session was very helpful! For my company, I found almost no comparable salary info on the Web, even on levels.fyi. Natalie came prepared with a median and range and she was spot-on with the initial offer! This really helped in my counteroffer, as I knew it was realistic. Also, even when I couldn't schedule a follow-up because of the holidays, she was prompt and helpful in answering my questions over e-mail.

I only regret that I had not had this conversation earlier in my job search instead of waiting until the offer stage.

Very helpful outlining what needs to be done. Excellent introduction and plan to move forward. Honestly I think it's almost perfect retrospectively.

The Levels.fyi advisor reviewed my offers with me and gave me helpful negotiation tips. I was able to convince one company to 2X my bonus and bump my stock options... a $30K/yr total increase! Sarah, my Levels.fyi advisor, went over the tactical details of how I should ask for adjustments and play one offer off the other. I was in a time crunch (one company wanted a response in 3 business days), and she even offered to review my draft emails over the weekend before I sent them to my hiring managers! It all worked out, and I've got a great job with great pay!

No-brainer. This service pays for itself many times over. They responded quickly and the scripts they crafted for me worked flawlessly.

Levels.fyi takes the guess work out of negotiations so that you are armed with an offer strategy customized to your situation and backed by hard data. More importantly, my negotiations expert knew the ins and outs as a former recruiter for FAANG companies and was able to provide nuanced guidance at each of my options. I also appreciated the thoughtful guidance and coaching support I received as a fresh-minted MBA graduate entering into one of the most volatile job market in the past decade. Levels.fyi was super responsive and always went above and beyond, even providing tips on how to prepare for future interviews. I only wish I had contacted Levels.fyi sooner. I can't recommend the Levels.fyi team enough. I chose Levels.fyi because their expertise, access to data, and professionalism exceeded other options out there and know I wouldn't have been able to get a 10% increase during COVID without their help.
