$120-$140 salary is accurate, depending on size. Tad higher if freelance.

Source: are you me?

Dang. Well, hopefully salaries in that range don’t require hours of shuttle commute working down to tech central. In my experience, that’s usually the case.

@CL1, where? Apple not in Marcom is offering freelance at $65-75/hr only. Seems low.

Not crazy

Now having looked around the market, I know I can make $173k freelancing plus overtime (me right now). I'm interviewing for full-time too and can get close to that much base salary plus stock options and sick benefits. ☺️😊😊😊😊

Unfortunately a shuttle is involved but I live in South Bay so it's not bad. SF folks do have a very long commute.

hello! I’m looking to get some insight to see if I’m being paid fairly for where I’m at in my career. I’ve worked at the same company for 2.5 years. This is my first job out of college. Started as an HR Admin, basically in a call center for all HR related inquiries and now am a Sr Admin assisting with escalations, interviewing, training new hires, supporting my team, scheduling, keeping track of stats- phone calls, tickets resolved, etc. I’m making $52k per year and work remote out of MA.

Hey guys, so I have competing offers. One at Bank of America for 124, and one at Allspring for 110.

Does anybody work at Allspring? They did not provide any information regarding benefits, 401k match, or any annual bonus structure. I was told, verbally, that the Bank of America bonus is something like 15 to 20%, but nothing in writing.

Just wondering if anyone has any knowledge about compensation structure at Allspring, or any opinions on the culture there. I would be in Charlotte.

Clawback clause in current contract: been in role for over 2 yrs, it was an internal move that required relocation. Relocation was approved shortly after (over 2 yrs ago) but covid meant the actual move and start of my contract with new subsidiary was delayed, I was paid by the previous subsidiary meanwhile. I got small relocation package. Would internal move be subject to a buy-out/clawback clause if I leave now and if yes, is it time in role or time under new contract? Any experience? Thanks!
