What's your experience level at and where are you/the firm located?
——
I think you’re in line with SE (CLT/ATL/FL) and maybe for the DC market but not positive on that.
Their willingness to renegotiate after 6 is promising though and it appears like they want to see how you perform before any salary bump. CEL Associates should give you some good comps to come back with; I would suggest digging into their surveys.
I would say the base salary is fair considering the city and firm’s size. You gotta count your blessings in this pandemic considering you are a new grad. I’d take it, work your ass off, and in 6 months you can easily renegotiate by showing your work ethic over the past 6 months.
Fresh out of UG, this is a fair offer for sure. Especially if a Philly type market (I mean, what else is one below BOS/NYC/DC?), overall good job!
This is so much better than what I got fresh out of undergrad. So yes fair for Philly.
Yes, fair.
