It might go against the business' interests to lowball a hire beyond the base salary, and in many places it is illegal to pay someone a lesser salary than somebody else in the same position. I've heard of the "we were thinking +$xx" happening a few times; I guess both sides end up very happy.

So everyone gets the same salary (in the same position)?
