Had an interview in OCT for a job and it went very well. The company has had lots of delays in making a final decision since their head office is very cost conscious. They have been feeding me constant updates and reiterating how much they want me to join. I feel that my initial salary expectation now feels outdated as it was 6 mo. ago last year. Any tips on how to renegotiate my initial salary exp. w/o possibly creating more delays with their head office? Sign on bonus?review $alry in 6 Months?

I mean....6 months isn't that long ago. Sure inflation and all but employers don't care. I don't think you will have luck renegotiating all though you can try. Your bet bet would be to ask for a salary review in 6 months.

Unfortunately I doubt 6 months will be long enough for them to consider renegotiation. You could try and get a sign on bonus due to inflation and rising prices in the last few months but I think in the long run this would probably only create longer delays in the process for probably a very small increase in salary.

At most, inflation is up 3-4% since you set your expectation. I doubt they'll be willing to renegotiate any sooner than one year after. The bigger issue I see is that this company has taken so long in settling your hire. That may be a hint of things to come as an employee.

Is $55k before taxes low for Marketing Coordinator Salary?

I’ve been the Marketing Coordinator at a small real estate private equity firm since I graduated (Marketing BBA) from college in May 2021. The firm is small & heavily relies on me, yet I feel overwhelmed & undervalued. Not only am I delegated to my marketing tasks, but non-marketing related projects & tasks. I initially started at 45k, so I’ve had raises & a few bonuses within a short time. Am I selfish? or am I worth more?
