Grokking Comp Negotiation in Tech

Leverage allows you to convince others, walk away, remain firm, or say no in a negotiation. And leverage results from possessing attributes that make you attractive to potential employers. You have greater negotiation leverage if you have more of the following:

- Esteemed pedigree of the current company
- High current compensation
- Competing offers
- Exceptional interview performance
- A highly in-demand or niche skill set

You can only be successful at negotiation if you possess attributes that make you attractive for potential employers.
