Anyone experiencing companies paying peanuts and not even close to something a kid at a fast food makes? $25 for jobs with a Masters Degree is criminal!

Omg I know. I graduated last year and I've been so depressed seeing wages, even for people with advanced degrees. Companies need to stop undervaluing education and expertise. We work hard to get these qualifications, and we deserve proper compensation for our skills and experience.

Its better to work at a fastfood and earn same amount of money without having a huge debt in student loans.

Shoulda looked into that before committing to spend the Time and $$ on the degree.

The person who checks your receipt at costco/walmart exit earns more than that. I guess its better to not go to college and save on that student debt.

What is your degree in? Having a degree is just one part of the qualifications needed. Do you have any experience in your field that could be leveraged for a higher wage? If you have no experience, then everyone has to start somewhere but once you get some experience then you can make more. Don't be discouraged and get that experience so you can leverage it later.

Hey try $19 an hour with a Master's degree. That was an offer that I got and I literally couldn't believe it. People working at Target are making more than that. I agree with you, the offer itself is criminal and honestly feels like a slap in the face.

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
