A couple months ago, I was promoted to mid-level designer and was given a raise that I believe was less than I should've received. I discussed it with my director, who also believed I should've gotten more and told me to connect with HR about it. I never actually got to meet with HR because they didn't respond to my first appointment request and then I went on vacation, returned, got swamped on projects, etc. Any advice for negotiating raise with HR (rather than your boss who knows your work)?

Have an offer for a marketing associate role at a large financial services company. Is there anything I can negotiate besides salary and bonus? Vacation, work policies, etc. seem to be set in stone. Not sure what else might be on the table that’s worth asking about?

What’s the difference between exiting at C vs M (or SC)? I’m interviewing for a Product Manager role that would net at least a 20% salary increase. At the same time, I’m having second thoughts about leaving consulting given the current trend of layoffs.

My position in sales, growing existing accounts with my company, is being eliminated in October. I either take a bit of a pay cut to do something really similar but more stable on the service side, or move to new business (which is not attractive to me), or I find something new. Is it fair they are having me interview just to basically keep my position after 7 years of doing it successfully meeting targets? Or is it time for me to look elsewhere?

Hi fishes,

This annual appraisal I have got a good % of appraisal increment on my salary but I was not promoted to a senior developer (although I have been mentoring a junior dev in my team and been part of building the project by implementing new technologies and tweaks) and my total YoE is 3.5+ years. What could be the reasons? What should I do now?

Thanks in advance!!

7 YOE, fresh MBA grad in July. I am currently making base 180K a year before taxes (comes about to 9.6K a month after tax). I am aiming for base 200K+ for my next role. The first interview call I’ve gotten is for an Apple hardware PM - full time MBA grad role. Would this meet my salary expectation? Or is it worth it to take the salary cut and work back up?

I'm not sick but getting depressed day by day.

Random Employment Law Question: If an employee has accrued PTO in CA, can their employer (headquartered in TX) deny pay for any time off taken for a certain period?

I sobbed Monday night when I realized there’s no way out of the financial rat race without compromising all aspects of health. Working hard isn’t enough. Shortcuts do not exist (no matter WHAT anyone tells you). Our companies will replace us in a month if we leave / die unexpectedly. And working 40+ hrs a week means spending a majority of walking hrs w/ coworkers. I keep deleting / rewriting this wanting it to be wrong but maybe I’ve been hiding from this truth all along.

How much time it takes for LTI to release offer letter ? 2 weeks ago had my HR discussion , 3 days ago got salary breakup rough draft

Hi, I had been laid off several weeks ago and because of eagerness to find a new job, I had sent out several apps to companies with positions I qualified for. However, I was screened out immediately due to my resume.

Because of this, I had revamped my resume to better showcase my qualifications after having colleagues review and provide feedback.

I wanted to see if it would be worth trying to apply to the same positions with a different email? Thank you for any advice!

Has anyone taken classes in valuations and received some kind of credential with just an EA? After a bit of a detour I’m getting my EA this year. I‘ve looked in to a few options, like the CVA, but it looks like I’d have to go to business school or become a CPA. I’m not against either but I don’t feel ready to apply to schools just yet. Wondering if anyone has taken a similarly unconventional route in their careers.
