Compensation throughout all retail sales is less than adequate. You can make just as much working at McDonald's without nearly the amount of stress from Sales goals and other standards you need to meet.

When I worked in retail, we had no sales goals or commission structure. It was definitely less stressful than a job in hospitality..
Happy that I switched to tech sales though.

NYC store managers, what should be a fair market salary for a SM?

Hey everyone, looking for some advice. I’ve been working as a RC for a tech company for 15 months making 45k (I know I’m underpaid) and I’m looking to pivot. I feel really burnt out in this role and would love to transition to something else, perhaps another department. I don’t really want to be in an entry level role again, so what kinds of jobs should I be looking at where I can transfer over my skills easily? I also have customer service experience but would love to stay away from that. TIA!

For anyone who receives a quarterly bonus or raise in some form, does your employer start to schedule you for less hours when your raise kicks in, or pull you from a future schedule entirely once you receive a bonus; only to put you back on once the hours you would have worked and earned the amount given are passed? Ie; a part time employee getting $200.00 in a quarterly bonus and then not being scheduled a whole week during a bi-weekly pay period where they would have earned more on the clock…?
