But you can live off of $150k in both NYC and Florida.

funny

I don’t know about wildly different, maybe slightly. I guess it depends what part of Florida you’re talking about. People who make $150k live very well in NYC. You can afford a really nice luxurious apartment. And for Florida, in Miami, Boca, Fort Lauderdale areas you would get pretty much the same nice lifestyle and could afford a nice place on the beach. But wildly different would be if it was Orlando or Jacksonville or Tallahassee. You get more bang for your buck in those Florida cities. But Miami and Manhattan I wouldn’t consider wildly different, aside from the actual city, weather, etc.

Why? This is about salary not cost of living

That’s true Vermont and nyc are totally different. But not all cities and companies are the same. I think it’s still good to know what city someone lives in when they post their salary. It just gives a little better perspective.

There are some cities where cost of living is really high but the average salary is really low. For example, in miami the average salary is like $50k. But i used to make $65k and I could not afford to live by myself. So, if I came on here and posted, I make $65k in miami at xyz company, it gives people better insight. And they may shy away from applying or accepting a job at that company because that salary doesn’t help pay rent for a single person living by themselves. Salary may not correlate with cost of living, but it’s still very helpful to post your city along with your salary.

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?

This is a recent incident happened to me, was interviewed for tcs, salary discussion happened on 12th March and was told to wait for final approval and was told that offer letter would be rolled out in 2 weeks. Hr did not negotiate on the CTC either. After waiting for a month i tried reaching HR they did not respond. After multiple emails they simply say that they cannot move forward due to high deviations. Guys is this normal in TCS that even after final CTC discussions ,candidates get rejectd.
