I understand if it's hard to calculate the median. But what's the minimum increase?

Some of the companies you mention try hard to make the initial offer compelling/fair (e.g. slightly above max of {current compensation, competing offer, target compensation for level}), so I'd assume that sometimes they simply won't budge beyond that, as they feel that they've taken into account all relevant info before making the offer.

Thanks for the question - can you send me an email directly so we can continue the conversation there? [e-mail].

I look forward to hearing from you soon!
