Hello, let’s talk about salary… I am curious. I am an EA/OM and Human Resources coordinator (New hire onboarding/off boarding mainly). My company is in the tech industry in Houston, TX. 5 days in office. Sick time and PTO are not accrued and are unlimited. I am currently at 65k. Anyone with similar position in Texas?

I’m in New York but I just wanted to tap in and say that I think for all of the jobs that you’re doing you should be getting paid a whole lot more. Those are like three separate jobs almost. And you’re doing all of them. I’d say you should be making double.

Just took on my first admin job and I’m at 65k. I’m in New York. You are being severely underpaid considering you’re doing 3 jobs (2 of which are demanding).

I’ve moved on from my strictly Admin position, and am working more in Abalytics, but still work closely with our HR, Talent acquisition, finance and resource management teams. First I’d say you are underpaid. Any start ups I’ve worked with throughout my career always paid more since there’s a greater risk compared to more established companies and jobs tend to be less defined with greater responsibility. Do you get overtime along with your salary? How’s your benefits cost?

For reference, I’m in the mid Atlantic region. When I left my admin role, I was at 80K plus overtime with unlimited PTO, wfh as needed, they paid into my HSA $1500 annually).

Yes. I have unlimited PTO, vision-dental-health insurance they pay for my portion. That’s it. No wfh, I have my hsa but they don’t contribute. No bonus either
