Help me choose a job! NYC. Job 1- full remote, $160k base, $30-$50k bonus (profit sharing, no control over this), no billing, work 30 hours a week, work is mindless and there is little growth. Job 2- hybrid, $200k base, depending how much you bill bonuses can get to $30k, work is challenging, expanding my skill set, realistically work 45-50 hours, no real partnership track.

Job 1 appeals to a healthier work life balance. If it's the challenge you are seeking, do more puzzles in the extra time you'll have not spent at work 😉 or learn a new hobby? Enjoy life

If you don’t take job 1, give it to me lol

Job 1 is a higher base salary per hour, less stress and what I assume is better work/life balance being fully remote. If benefits are comparable that’s a no brainer. See if you can get them to raise the offer a bit.

Could you give us a generally idea of Job 1without giving away specifics

Job 1 seems ideal but then again if you want to the perceived valuable experience, Job 2 is the way to go. Also, wouldn’t Job 2 make you more marketable down the line? Personally, (not advice) I would choose Job 1 and live frugally to hopefully retire early via FIRE or something of the sort.

I am inquiring about a patient account coordinators salary. It seems I am asking way above average salary due to current position and experience I bring as well as education. Can someone give a number for this position and suggestions for negotiating pay to make what I’m worth.

My firm typically does insurance defense, but we take plaintiffs cases here and there. Is it typical that work done by associates on contingency cases isn’t counted toward their billable hour requirements unless and until we receive our fee on the case? This is my first experience with this, but it’s hard for me to reach my hours as is, without spending time on non billable cases like this with no assurance that I’ll see billable credit at the end.

I work in insurance. I was working for an Allstate agent and was fired the day after my grandmothers funeral for being “unenthusiastic in our morning meeting”. Now I’m having anxiety searching for a job. I don’t think I want to sell anymore yet every single recruiter I interview with says I should, that I have a “salesperson mentality”. I’m burnt out. Has anyone else felt this way? How did handle it? Is there a different career path I can take or am I destined to sell insurance forever?
