6th year and being recruited by former colleague I used to work with so wouldn’t be going through a recruiter for anything. Any idea on what kind of signing bonus to ask for/expect? For corp/M&A

I just got $20k but at a smaller (amlaw 120) firm.

Hello folks. I have 9 years of experience as a front end developer. Worked for over 4 companies in total. I’m planning to switch. How much yearly salary should I expect? Recruiters call and say that they don’t have budget beyond 130k. And I believe 130k base is pretty less. Happy to receive opinion/info.

generally speaking, do government agencies actually demand more from you if you’re in a higher vs. a lower salary tier/division e.g., I vs. II, II vs. III, III vs. IV, etc.?

Hi, I’d like to gauge folks for some input — I received an offer for $100k at a different company in the same industry, 2 YOE. This is an HR / compensation analytics role as opposed to my current product analytics role. This is a less technical role and I’m worried that it may affect future prospects. For context, the offer is about 25k more than I currently make. Thoughts?

Just got offered a job at a small biotech in London (UK). ~£45k plus bonus but only 1YR FTC and no equity.

Pretty sure it's a discovery role too.

I just finished my PhD at a very good uni with 3 years technician experience before that. BSc and MSc also at very good unis with good grades.

I think this offer is well below par, but curious to hear what you guys think/if you have any comparisons?

Thanks in advance :)

"My dad used to wake me up at 4AM through junior high and high school and make me run on the treadmill so I could get better at soccer. Stop complaining about no sleep".
