I thought the 'always ask for more money' advice was just noise until my manager in Denver said 'we have a 15k range for this role'
I was offered a job and almost took the first number, but I remembered that old tip and asked if there was any flexibility. The hiring manager straight up told me the salary band and I got an extra 8k. Has anyone else had a simple piece of common advice actually pay off big?

Honestly feels like that advice is way overhyped sometimes. Tbh, a lot of places just have a set budget and won't budge.

So much advice gets repeated until it feels useless, but then you try it and it actually works. It's like people forget that asking a simple question is usually the lowest risk move you can make. The real trick is just not talking yourself out of trying it.
