Got promoted to Manager and my new pay after taxes, 401k, and stock deductions is $1500 more a month. I’m shook. And really grateful. I plan to continue saving and investing, but wow I can’t believe it.

What is the % hike

like

About 35%!

likeuplifting

I mean, sounds like you’re stashing 15% of the increase into an ESPP and another chunk (15%?) into 401k. That money is still yours/getting saved. Taxes are probably 30% so that leaves you with only ~40% of your increase going into your net pay although an amount close to that is still going into your pocket that you’re choosing to ignore. Congrats on the promo btw!

I have to support my family financially. Usually my mom cooks for the family so groceries only cost $1200/month. However, my mom is abroad for 2 months so it’s just my siblings and they can’t cook so they’ve been using my card for doordash. I think there are days when they spend $100+/day. It’s frustrating because my mom already told them the daily budget repeatedly. I’ll go bankrupt at that rate. However, it’s not like I can take my card back since I don’t want them to starve…

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working as a contract TAS for 6 months in a medical device company. I started part time and as it became busier/my trainer quit, I became full-time. I applied for the TA position through corporate and would like some insight. the company is short staffed and my site specifically does not have good TA retention. For the salary expectation, I put in 85k which is in the range. I’m currently at 64k which is below the minimum of the range. Is this realistic?
