Are you looking to make more money? What if you could have more time off rather than money? Which would you prefer?
A recent study by Hudson Highland Group says more than 42% of American's surveyed want to make more money. So do you know how to increase income when it comes time to accept a new offer? What is negotiable? If you don't know what benefits can be negotiated how will you get a better salary and benefit package? You've got to cover all of your bases.
Most older workers surveyed said they want better benefits and a better work-life balance. So, how can you get these things at the point of negotiation?
Benefits and retirement plans are not always negotiable, however if you aren't asking for a higher matching point on your 401K you may be leaving lots of extra money unaccounted for.
What about the work like balance? Here are a few things you may not know are negotiable:
1. Flex Time
2. Work from Home
3. Day Care Contributions
4. Additional time off
5. Extended vacation time
Most people surveyed said they would accept benefits that helped them balance their personal life over more money.
