Hi all, recently in touch by Spotify recruiter for a Sec Engineer position for remote EU and was told that range was 60-80 out of base salary and equity. Had 2 years of security experience out of my 4 years. Was also told that there is no bonus scheme or no sign in bonus 😕 Not sure how I feel about this tbh.
What do you think?

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?

At the clinic I work for , they charge them with a fee for a no show and under 24 hr notice cancellation ( unless it’s an emergency ) . Some clients has been warned about no shows , charged with fees for it but ends up throwing a fit ( nice way I can describe it ) . Hospital manager ends up refunding them for it because she is a pushover and does not want to fire any client for whatever reason .
We started charging fees for no-shows, and appointments not canceled 24 hours in advance. We were getting a ton of no-shows and this has helped a lot now as they are serious and charge.
It’s never a big deal, unfortunately. And the company I work for questions why there is such a high no show rate. We’ve talked about implementing this- but not sure when it will move forward company wide.
At the time of scheduling, take a deposit to cover the cost of the appointment. They are not allowed to schedule if they refuse to pay. If they come, the check-up is "free" because it has already been paid for; all they owe is the remaining amount for any additional services or goods you send them home with.
It's time to make people accountable for their actions, and in today's world, the greatest way to accomplish so is with their money. There will be resistance, complaints, and all kinds of justifications. Hold firm, draw a line in the sand, and declare that this is the way things are now because so much time has been spent by numerous irresponsible people.
Clients must pre-pay for the checkup if they contact to reschedule but fail to arrive for their scheduled appointment. Clients are more likely to show up when they have already made a deposit, so it definitely helps.
It hasn't been a problem for us since we started charging for no-shows, so no, it's not a big deal for us anymore. You have to start taking actions against behaviors like this or else, more people are going to waste your time.
I contact them to reschedule at the time of the missed session and remind them of how to contact the clinic. Unless I have a compelling cause to do so, I often leave it there.
Three missed appointments result in discharge, according to a clause in our agreement paperwork during intake. And we request that they give us 24 hours' notice. Although I am a little more forgiving than that, I will let someone know that they will be removed if they don't show up and then don't return my calls or texts.
Just to make sure they appear at the appointment schedule they make an initial payment which will be forfeited once they didn't show at the scheduled date. I could have catered other clients if I am not booked on her schedule.
We have at least 48 hours' notice at our clinic. Those who fail to notify us within that time frame will be considered no show and will be charged 25% fee.
It's a really big deal because we only accept appointments. And if a client doesn't show up, it's kind of disrespectful because we could have booked an appointment for a client who needs urgent care.
We let our clients know that no-shows are an inconvenience to our clinic by charging no-show fees. But of course, to make everything fair, we also track appointments and send follow-ups via a software to the clients.
Oh, it's a really big deal at our end because it causes inconvenience to the entire clinic. They should at least notify us 24 hours before so we could at least readjust our schedule for the next day.
