" Now, i felt so cheated by HR. They are just using those reasons as excuses for bargaining. Some more, if I am not wrong, there isn't any salary downward adjustment in 2007-2009. HR just wanna take advantage of economy downturn to cut new ppl's salary. "
HR takes instructions from the CEO.. of course they could also suggest to cut since it would take far more effort to improve productivity and they dont know how to do that.
I would suggest you ask for a specific amount and prepare to walk out when the answer is "no".
