"I would recommend The Thoughtful Co to anyone looking to negotiate their salary. From our very first session, it was evident that they are not only experienced in these conversations but also have a strong understanding of the market and how compensation works across different industries and geographies, so all of the advice they provided was always relevant. They are approachable and honest and their investment in their clients' success makes them both a pleasure to work with and effective professionals. I am very happy to have worked with The Thoughtful Co and I'm very grateful for the outcomes of my sessions."
