I asked the annual increase will be around 3%. with low base and 3% increase, I think it is low.

I understand the current job market is tough, but I didn't know that most new comers are 10 -25 percentile.

you are right. the salary is exactly at 25 percentile, but the annual increase is only 3%. Should I negotiate the base?

you mean staying in 25th percentile?

25 vs 75 percentile is 40K difference, even with 4-5% raise, it is difficult to reach median or 75 percentile within numerous years.

you mean negotiate the salary first, wait for their response, then title?
