Hi All! Looking for some advice. I am a manager a country club but I do everything. I’m in charge of outside events and member events, in charge of the front of house staff, scheduling, ordering and membership sales for the club. I feel I am very underpaid at $45k. I do get commission but it’s very low ($10k give or take for the year). I work 6/7 days a week sometimes 10+ hrs/day. I’ve been researching salaries to be able to negotiate higher pay. I want to ask for $60k-is this reasonable?

I would apply elsewhere and see what they are paying. Get an offer in hand to give you leverage

Do your research; crowdsourcing is ok but at the end of the day you know your own situation best. Keep your job and explore other opportunities; if you find a higher paying job elsewhere then evaluate and make your next step.

I think that is a reasonable salary for the level of experience and responsibility you have. You are essentially doing the job of three people and should be compensated accordingly. Good luck negotiating that salary!

You seem to be an integral part of the club and contribute greatly to its success. With that said, I believe you deserve a salary increase and would recommend asking for around $60k. Remember that they may not be able to meet this exact number, so be prepared to negotiate.

I do all these tasks as well. Depending on location. Your pay range is anywhere from 130k — 300K. Always good to negotiate more, know you’re worth.

I live in Ohio so I don’t know what the average would be here

52,000 -55,00 is very reasonable plus your bonus of 10k would not be to much to ask for.

How easily are they able to replace you? A ~33% pay increase is steep and you asking for that might make them think they can get someone else willing to do the job for the same pay. I don’t disagree that your being underpaid, but asking for that amount of an increase could backfire.

Where are you located?

In Ohio

I just received an offer from Citi for VP 130k base no sign on bonus, 2 YOE in banking and 7 YOE outside of banking. Is this a good deal? Location, FL.

10hr per day x 6 day per week x 52 weeks per yr= 3120 hr per yr

$45000/3120=$14.42 per hr
$55000/3120= $16.63

Can you get a job that pays you better than this?

I’m not sure what going rates are in my location. I haven’t had many opportunities to look at other jobs. But going to moving forward

Recently promoted. Managing 4 direct reports, which essentially means I’m managing an entire department (it’s small company). Offered a 10% increase, which according to my research is low. Also know for a fact that 2 peers were offered 15% right off the bat, even though I’m technically more senior than they are. Live in NYC, 8 years of experience at the company and in total (first job out of college). I’m being told that there is no chance of negotiating further. Am I being taken advantage of?

Is it possible to ask for too high of a salary during an interview?

I had an interview end early because they couldn't match my salary ask despite me being a "perfect candidate" (their words). The range was the same/lower than what I currently make, and their role was for a more senior position. I gave a highball range but I figured there would be some negotiating. Maybe that company just isn't the right fit for me, but I'm just thrown off by how quickly the call ended after that.

I’m about to accept a position at an information services company for a marketing coordinator position. They are offering 62k out of a 55k-65k range that I was quoted, and that aligns with my research. It’s much more than what I’m making now, but I thought it would be smart to run this by you all before signing the dotted line. This would be my first time as a marketing coordinator—I’m bringing in 5+ years from an adjacent industry to the table, if that gives perspective. WDYT? Thank you!

I just received an offer on a job I would really like to accept. The salary offer is about 25% higher than my current salary, which I am happy about, but is also the low $ on the range I had expressed to the recruiter and the exact $ that I put on the online application (I had to put a $ figure). Am I being greedy trying to negotiate for a bit higher? Do they expect me to counter? I have been burned by NOT negotiating in the past but who can be mad at a 25% increase??
