Hey guys! What a great app and space! I’ve been wondering how long I should hang onto this technical recruiter role at 55k salary plus commission . I love my team, the resources and training , PTO, etc… but, I’m underpaid for sure. I got involved with this agency for the training and notoriety. When should I jump ship and which way should I go to make the most $$$ with work/life balance. ??? I know it’s a broad topic without more specs but general answers will do. Thanks!

Robert Half is so persistent in contacting me. It’s disappointing to know that they pay their recruiters so badly. I think you should move to a better pay situation ASAP. Savings really start to add up once you get off your intro salary. Even 10k-20k more would make a big difference for you if you can keep your cost of living steady.

Quality of life is important. You've mentioned a few things here that sound like you value that. Money is great and sometimes you need to make more to know what's more important to you, that might be your situation -- only you really know. That said, we're in the middle of a technical recession and while you're looking there are a lot of benefits you can continue to take advantage of in the meantime. Try to focus on the positives and by the time you hit year 2 you'll be in a new role or making more in your current job. For your 1st job you're making a typical salary, but the other things -- training, wlb, boundaries, etc. These are all lessons and habits that if you learn them early can change your career and more importantly your life. It's not easy for recruiters at this moment, you're not doing bad.

Had a recent job offer from Amazon TC 146 K sign on bonus 42K RSU 508 for a L6 Sr. Program manager based out of Nashville.
