Speaking of lying - be careful. Deloitte not only does background check but in lieu of doing it while you're still employed elsewhere they ask you for your pay stubs. Yup it's true. I suppose you could take your chances just a caution here from personal experience.

Now other offers is open game. But again comes down to your confidence level on what you're requesting and whether you're willing to not get it

like

You could also not disclose how much you make now if it's really low compared to what you're asking. You're under no obligation to answer if they ask, just say you'd like to be paid a fair salary because you'll be doing the same work and you're more than qualified

My remit quadrupled+ in a recent re-org with no increase in pay/promotion, my new director is new to the company and was zero help, and I was passed over for recent promotion during the comp cycle. The new director essentially began shutting me down any time I ask for clarity in my career progression. Now they have taken credit for the project I’ve been building over the past year+ without giving me props whatsoever to higher ups. What is the best plan of action here?

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.

Considering a Product Owner role. Any best practices of what questions to ask during an interview? First phase deals with a virtual Teams interview with the recruiter and her manager on Tuesday. Excited since this is a hop from a Product Analyst role and entails an offer of over $30,000 from what I'm getting now! This would be a permanent full-time compared to my current contractor role that ends in March.
