Hello, I am interviewing for a job in the capital markets division of an oil and gas company. I will be negotiating a draw pay structure, and commission is uncapped and the leads are warm. I currently make 80k plus bonus and have great benefits. The only reason I am looking to move is the pay. (Car is not reliable, student loans, etc make it difficult to save any money) my question - what amount do you all think would be my ceiling for the draw? I have 10 years experience and 2 bachelor’s degree

Region? High COL area, how much negotiations leverage do you have in that 10 years, ect. There's a lot of gap to fill in before speculating salary expectations.

Do you have family that you support? If you are single and having trouble making ends meet at 80k (and aren’t in a HCOL area), increasing your income likely won’t help. You’ll need to learn better spending habits first.

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?

is anyone familiar with pay differentials, negotiating for a temporary raise or some other form of compensation for extra work? 3 coworkers on my team have recently resigned, and certain shifts are being expected to work at half staff until new hires can be brought on. if my workload is being doubled, i expect to be compensated, as they are paying one employee to do the work of two. any suggestions or wording on how to address this?
