About 10 seniors and a few staff in philly tax got together. We discussed our comp and have decided to simultaneously quit if our raises are not greater than at par to make up for the crap year last

It is:

1. Interesting that the OP is uncertain about the exact number of people that got together as evidenced by the usage of “About 10.” Such uncertainty reveals the overzealous nature to quit prior to having performed a thorough analysis of all potential actions and their resulting consequences, and

2. Also difficult to all simultaneously quit as that would require the respective number of HR personnel and a certain door width to allow for all to simultaneously walk-out.

You will quit without a job? Get real that is very stupid. Make smart choices about your career and not over a few thousand dollars at a low level. I wouldn’t hire you if heard why you left because your a shit stirring trouble maker. Everyone is replaceable especially now that everyone works remotely.

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
