Have you ever used shadowing as a way to get more money in your job? Learning other departments to either get higher pay there or use it as leverage to show your commitment?

I don't really think you can reasonably learn other skills just by shadowing. A shadow is more of a survey, not a way to reliably build up a bigger skill set. I have shadowed, but I really didn't learn much beyond the basics.

Yeah I guess you actually have to get you hands stuck into it for the most part.

It doesn't really work like that unfortunately. Spending a day watching someone else work doesn't make you qualified to do their job. And you're kidding yourself if you think employers will A) see this as a sign of commitment and/or B) think your commitment means you're worth paying more.

Almost anything makes a company trust you less by the sounds of it.

I have. Mainly to get more experience.

Yeah I think experience alone can be a good idea.

Hello I’m curious on how to bring this to my supervisor attention. A few months back all the techs got a raise based on how long they have had been a tech. A coworker and I Both have been a tech for the same amount of years but she got 1.50 more than I did. How do I bring this up as the supervisor mentioned that we shouldn’t be talking about our raises.

I’ve been approached my by company that one of our large clients (who im currently project managing for) is looking for a consultant of sorts, and if they hire us, I’d be the first person asked to take on this consultant role. This isn’t something my company typically offers and would greatly change the scope of my role. Has anyone ever taken on a role like this? If so, were you able to negotiate a percentage of the consulting fee? Or was it a bump in salary during the project?

Does anyone know comp for an L4 Global Account Rep role (base, equity, bonus). I’m asked to give my expected earnings prior to going into my final round. Any advice would help!

Are there any fundamental differences between a salary negotiation during the start (applying for the job) vs. Salary negotiation during a performance review (you’ve been employed for x time and looking for a raise). I’m in the latter and wondering if there are any maneuvers that are different I should be doing.
