Doesn’t that seem like an awful confident position to take this early on? I feel like most firms won’t see the effects of this for a couple of months when invoices stop getting paid etc. so how can a firm even say that for certain at this point?

I mean, for the time being. Some clients are renegotiating, others have asked for more time, others got a discount, and the plan is to go back around mid June/July. If things go wrong ofc plans will change

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

Do you say “remuneration” in place of Compensation or in place of Total Rewards? For some reason I thought it was more related to TR and both Comp and Remuneration were used globally.
