No, in this case dealmakers will often want to just make more deals and may even negotiate less aggressively for you.

For example a realtor would rather sell your house for less immediately rather than risk a transaction falling through.

The commission upside of pushing for a 20k higher salary is often just not worth the time compared to getting the next deal done.
