Yes..its normal if others offer better

Yes, on-site for retention

I did it once and I was successful in renegotiating the salary. Then I was stuck in that job for years, tried asking for a promotion and failed. I recently resigned and changed company.

I did, got instant promotion and expected hike. Got promoted again within 2 years!

The counters always circumstantial. Are you actually being retained for the value you bring in or is your retention a stop gap approach.

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?

Hi! New attorney here. Licensed in January 2021.

I wish I could just work all day but it's not coming naturally to me. I walk, I take breaks.... but it's hard

Just got offered a job at a small biotech in London (UK). ~£45k plus bonus but only 1YR FTC and no equity.

Pretty sure it's a discovery role too.

I just finished my PhD at a very good uni with 3 years technician experience before that. BSc and MSc also at very good unis with good grades.

I think this offer is well below par, but curious to hear what you guys think/if you have any comparisons?

Thanks in advance :)
