Hello,

I was offered a position however it was offered to me below the starting salary that was listed. The salary is very close to my previous employment minus a few added perks and benefits. My previous employment was strictly remote and this is now in person so a lot of gas is going to be used.
They offered me the position 13K below the base of the salary that was listed in the job position. Has anyone experienced this and how did you approach this? I have mixed feelings about it.

$13k is a significant amount. I would ask them why the salary difference. I would also inquire if you are being offered the position of which you applied for. I’ve heard some stories where they offer a different position and that’s why the salary is different.

Make sure that you DO NOT take the job. I started my 1st job as a BSN, RN at $8/hour and have had to claw my way up in nursing, a historically predominantly female job where men are taken by the hand when they come into a nursing role and pulled up through both pay and role ranks. Of course, you may counter their offer with rationale and explanation. Don't cave in thinking they will come up over time. It won't happen.

That’s a tough spot to be in! It’s definitely worth discussing the salary with them, especially given the costs of commuting. Don’t hesitate to advocate for yourself! Good luck!

Ask. Be honest. Happened to me before and that’s all I did. Still got the job, at the salary that was posted.
