Hi all! I have an opportunity to work as a l&d specialist at a tech company. They are quoting 70-75k for base salary. I have 8 years experience. Is that number fair? It seems low to me but I just wanted to check.

That seems extremely low. I would think someone with 8 years should be closer to 100k minimum

I agree! I plan on asking for that but I didn’t want to be off value

Depends. What's the market? If you're in San Francisco it's low. If you're in Arkansas it's not bad.

Thank you so much! I will certainly have the conversation with them.

Definitely seems low. I also received a lowball offer before for a HR remote position, in the same area (DC/Arlington). Maybe they just don’t pay HR folks much in that market.

I would definitely negotiate and see how high you can push it. You should be able to get six figures if you have been in L&D for 8 years.

I can’t imagine that they lowball hr ppl in that area that low. It’s so expensive to live here. I do know they were seeking people who had between 0-4 years experience so I’m wondering if that’s why. But they are well aware of my 8 and still want me. I will def try for at least 100k

honestly, even for a Tier 2 city that's low

I’m in the Midwest and that would be a tad low for a specialist title. If you have 8 years experience you may want to advocate for a senior specialist title, too.

That’s a great point! I guess I’ll be negotiating a title change too! Thank you! 😊

Wow! Just confirmation of what I already felt. They are definitely lowballing me!

Where are you located? In a HCOL area its definitely very low

Do you have any other offers in hand?

Not yet, but I am anticipating them. I hope I receive them around the same time to use as leverage.
