Am I being lowballed?
What is the company profile, scope of work and your background?
I accept 8.3k but it was a regional role (over 30 jurisdictions in APAC) and i was trained in the specific area the company does business in. This was before covid.

If you're a generalist and its a local role/local company, then no - you're not being low-balled.

If you're a specialist, its a regional or multiple-portfolio role (both legal + compliance), or am MNC, then you have room to nego for more.

I would nego for more, but if they tell me that's the best they can do, i'll accept it in this climate. Definitely would not have accepted pre-covid times.
