Anyone else feel this job market (USA) is driving salaries down? I’d estimate that mid to senior level IC data roles are running ~$25k base BELOW what I feel the fair market value should be based on previous data I’ve collected with inflation factored in. I’ve also heard of offers coming in below what was discussed in initial screens by $5-15k base, without solid reasons, putting candidates in a tough spot. This is for data roles in marketing. Curious what other industries are seeing?

This is happening across the board. If you look at any major news site, you'll inevitably find stories about experienced employees struggling to find work as they've been deemed too expensive. It's making me hesitant to even bother looking for a new job, as much as I'd like to leave here. Feels like the odds of me getting an offer that's high enough to be worth leaving for are very slim in this market.

Non-technical role at a software company checking in and yep, I agree. I was heavily job searching in 2023, and since then have been keeping an eye on salaries for senior ICs in my type of role. I'm searching again now and am finding salaries that are just slightly above what I made at my previous company (notorious for paying well below market rate) which is probably 15-20% below what I saw just 2 years ago. For me it's effectively a raise but for others who were more appropriately compensated it's gotta be a pay cut.

I asked for a raise in April 2022 after three years with my company. Positive feedback since day one. Learned I was making less than peers at other asset managers in NYC with less experience (14 years). Latest conversation was with HR about how they calculate salaries. I’ve been asked to provide examples how my role has changed since I started to justify the increase. Is this normal? Or is this just their way of denying my request?

Just to note, this is about a 25% increase compared to what I am currently making.

Hi all,

After a couple of days, HR person came back with with 125k base and 20k annual bonus. No sign-on equity anymore. What should I do given that these numbers seem way lower than the initial range provided? HR claimed it’s because of “market conditions”.
