At the moment I explain to my clients that after the pandemic there was an increase in prices in all areas, so the supplies have increased in price and that unfortunately it is a chain where the prices have increased.

Unfortunately product costs are up right now. I manage an entertainment center and costs of certain items are up 300%. Whenever I have a customer complain I simply state that like them, we are effected by inflation too. Try to make up for it in customer service, that is all we can do.

Reposting this here from the compensation bowl a week back. I’m deep into the interview process at Apple and have managed to deflect salary expectations until now. This is for a PM role on their data product ops group. I have 6 yoe. Is 180-200k a fair base to ask for? I believe this would be for an ICT4 role. TIA

Got an offer for Atlassian Canada - senior product manager. Initial offer is 160k base +15% annual bonus (24k) + 20k sign on bonus. RSU is 220k USD payable over next 4 years. There's no RRSP match (401k match equivalent). Considering its Atlassian, and current market rate, I think base is low. I would like it to be bumped upto to 180k. The recruiter earlier said the top of the pay range is 165k, which I feel is not really top but maybe median? Help me negotiate please; historically suck at it.

Will this be a hire to fire case?

I was offered $42k plus bonuses at the interview, but when called back I was offered $44.5k plus bonuses. I already accepted. Did I leave money on the table here?
