I still miss Montreal though.

This is considering that I speak French, have 10+ years of work experience doing software development. I even suggested my interest in an Engineering Manager position due to my experience leading teams in my two previous jobs. They only added $10k to the base salary and stopped there. They didn't seem to be interested to negotiate, they just sat in that offer for one week rejecting all my suggestions to increase my salary, until I decided to decline all together.

All this, after 6 engineering and hiring managers from that company came to my city to recruit Senior Engineers, interviewing around 30 people, selecting around 8 of us for a technical interview, then giving an offer to just 3 of us. I am not sure if the other two candidates accepted the offer. I hope not, this way they can learn a lesson and increase their salaries next time.
