Hi all! I’ve been working as administrative assistant for a construction company for 2 years. I’ve been looking into hybrid or remote positions. Trying to accept that I may have to take a pay cut, however, I would not be able to afford my apartment. Do you know of any companies hiring?

With the cost of living right now (which is only going up), I wouldn't recommend taking a pay cut significant enough to where it would impact your ability to cover your bare minimum expenses.

My advice would be to keep your current job until you secure another that pays more.

I have worked in construction over 15 years. I think it will be hard to find a construction company that offers remote work. You may find a few that do hybrid. I agree you don't want to take a pay cut, not only because of economics but sometimes it is hard to get back up to where you should be. I wish you the best in your search.

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
