All companies have policies and they are not going to bust every policy for a someone coming in as a fresh out of school engineer. Hell, they already busted one policy and gave you an extra week vacation AND you got a signing bonus. What more do you want? An extra 2k a year? That really isn't much and it isn't worth the trouble, IMO. The longer you keep it up the more likely they may determine you are not worth it and just drop you. Fresh new engineers are a dime a dozen. I say sign in and stop the madness.

I completely agree. Even if you were able to get more out of them for a starting salary, they will make up for it come appraisal time. The same can be said the opposite way as well, if they feel they have underpaid you for the job you perform, they will compensate for that come appraisal time.
Tkae the offer they gave you. $2k more a year is like 20 bucks a week after taxes, its not worth all this effort you are putting in, when in the end the company will win.
