The five tweets:

1) Salary negotiation for engineers in 5 tweets: Never, ever reveal past salary information or your salary floor. #salarynegotiation

2) Every number in your contract is subject to negotiation. Hear otherwise? They're lying for advantage. #salarynegotiation

3) We are all businessmen here. Insecurity will not be rewarded with karma. Competency will not be viewed as greed. #salarynegotiation

4) Always have a counteroffer. Always have an option to walk away from the negotiation. #salarynegotiation

5) It is a seller's market now for talent. If they don't budge, firm handshake and wish them well in their search. #salarynegotiation
