In DC one of probably the ten most expensive cities in the country, if you're not remote that might be a tad bit low. Though I don't think it's so low you would look for the door. I would expect closer to $150k - $175K base but don't live in DC. So take my thoughts with a grain of salt.

The only exception here being if it's fully remote. Then in my opinion anything above $110K base is about right for a manager using a middle of the road COL adjustment rather than a DC one from their perspective.

Yeah seems like I’m probably on the lower end of base. But 20% cash bonus and RSU grant seem a little higher than average

Recently accepted a temp role as an HR admin for a former employer. Previously interned there & left because my supervisor did not have any growth opportunities planned out for me; this was in spite of my stellar performance, as reflected in my 90 day review. She has since left the company, but there’s crazy turnover in the company & in the HR department in particular. Just that an HR coordinator resigned. Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?
