Hi there. PO here with 11 months of experience in current role. 5 years out of college (business degree) and 2 years experience at current tech startup. Interviewing for a Product Manager role as an individual contributor reporting to the Managing Director of the company. Can anyone share insight to salary expectations/ranges? No one in my company has been in this role so I’m struggling to match the JD with a salary. Any tips or tricks welcomed!

Can you share location for your role and company HQ if different location? I was in your position about 3 years ago in southern California and at that time salary looked like $100k + some equity in startup. ++ All the "fun" quirks of startup life like lots of free food, kombucha machine etc.

Columbus, OH. For added reference, no equity option at the moment, no free lunches, and a standard 3 week PTO package. Base is 69k currently.

I'd still think you could get to $75-$85k tbh even in the midwest

I think it's better to research what people in similar roles are making at other companies. Have you searched glassdoor and payscale? These sites often have accurate estimates.

Yes, I did a fair amount of market research across multiple sites. It looks like the Ohio average for 1-3 years experience is 93k before bonus. Found a few job postings on LinkedIn that fall in line with that salary… being a younger female I’m scared to “over ask” if that make sense..

I would ask for no less than 85k.

I recently switched job and joined another B4 firm. As part of the hiring I was promised with a sign on bonus. Now I have received the sign on bonus twice, in back to back paychecks. I know I have to somehow return the second bonus to the firm. Does anyone know how taxes work on this? As both the bonuses were tax deducted prior to deposit, when I return amount do I need to pay back the withheld taxes to the firm as well? Asking as the amount is big and don’t want to go in the IRS route. TIA.

Hi.. I applied for an opportunity in UBS which I saw in Linkedin around 10-12 days back and I did receive a kind of automated email for online assessment. I took the assessment but post that I didn't hear anything. I see that job in linkedin is still accepting applications.

What shall I conclude from this? Is my profile not shortlisted for interview or they usually took many applications and then decide who shall be called for interview?
What is the approach?

Interesting. Let’s see if the uptick In cases continues to drive an uptick in hospitalizations and then in fatalities. Depends on how many of the cases are incidental or in very young people not prone to severe cases. But either way, look at the hospital capacity utilization figures! This is the untold story. Were we bending the curve to avoid unnecessary deaths due to overcrowded hospitals, or were we bending the curve to buy time for treatments and vaccine, or just to slow fatalities?
