Makes sense to me to jump

CorpDev usually has way bigger bonuses so take that into account

I’d take that in a heart beat. Corp Dev is hard to land from FDD

Wow thanks! I have been debating hard because I wanted to work several more years in FDD (until manager at least or director) but guess I’ll go for it.

likesmart

Yeah the comp jump with bonus looks good and corp development is a good landing spot after FDd

like

Yeah congrats on the offer - I’m a senior in FDD as well and it seems like Corp development is the goal landing spot but not many from FDD are able to get there.

Congrats! What city are you OP? How did you get the offer? Is it hard? I’m NYC FDD.

like

My whole reason for wanting to switch to FDD is to eventually land a corp dev role (not easy to do, but much more feasible than practices like audit). I'd take it.

like

Anyone has worked in Corp dev here that like to share their experiences?

OP, where are you located?

As everyone has said, Corp dev is pretty hard to get into. Make the jump and congratulations.

Hi all, I’ve been pondering this question in my mind for awhile and haven’t found any solid answers. How much is the average wage for a Prep Cook & Dishwasher? If it matters, I’m in Virginia. I’m in the process of learning to be a Line Cook so that should give me more courage to ask for a raise. I’m currently at $14/h, and with reduced hours, inflation isn’t helping me. Any insights will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

I’m currently an AE and was offered a promotion to sales manager. I’ve been waiting for this next step but the offer only provides a 5% raise over what I currently make. We had several manger seats open and I know external people we hired received an offer atleast 20-30% more than I did.
I’m currently trying to negotiate but there doesn’t seem like there’s willingness to do so from our hiring team. Should I decline? Should I leave? Should I accept and start looking elsewhere?
