I am in the process of interviewing for a position with another company. I am very experienced in my field and worth more than what I am currently being paid. Due to that fact as well as some recent mergers at my company, my current role is no longer serving me and my family.
The position I am interviewing for will need me to start almost immediately and that is where the challenge comes into play. The first paycheck in February for my current job pays at least a 10k dollar bonus that was based on this past year’s performance.
I want this new role, but I do not want to lose that bonus by leaving early, but would be willing to if I can get a sign on bonus.
The person who is making this decision knows my expected salary going into the next interview.
My question is this, how do I ask for a sign on bonus in the amount of 10k without sounding greedy or ungrateful?
As a side note: I am a female and feel that this is relevant because us ladies tend to under sell ourselves and I have let that bite me in the ass in the past. This time i want to be smart about negotiating and making sure that they know that I am a worth the extra
Thank you!
