Any advice for my SO who does data analytics at a healthcare insurer and is looking for a new job? He likes the role, he’s just not paid very well (I’m talking like $70k base and he’s 27). He’s considering consulting, but I wonder if big tech is a better option for him

I’m still working VERY full time, and I was just diagnosed with early onset preeclampsia 😫

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?

Interviewer feedback denying me the role was that because I did not say "People trust me and came to me about process issues. Which led me to collaborate with others that I have networked with in the past to find solutions." I did not get the job.
