I would say most people feel the way you do but if the company decides they want a culture where people are coming in X amount of days I doubt you will do anything to change their mind. I feel the days are over of companies making one off exceptions and normally it’s a single policy for everyone.

Yeah I get the broad strokes rules but my my transport is so expensive it would be nice to get more time at home.

Approach it with the reasoning that you do better work when remote. You can focus more, deliver more quality, etc. You have to show them the value for it to make sense on their side. All that being said, some companies are not at all flexible with it.

Yeah my company seems very not flexible with the idea do to “client satisfaction” reasons or something like that.

Just ask and make sure to add other things in your request so you can negotiate on multiple fronts and leverage wfh more

I’m currently negotiating a shift change, maybe I can add it onto that.

Recently accepted a temp role as an HR admin for a former employer. Previously interned there & left because my supervisor did not have any growth opportunities planned out for me; this was in spite of my stellar performance, as reflected in my 90 day review. She has since left the company, but there’s crazy turnover in the company & in the HR department in particular. Just that an HR coordinator resigned. Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?

I’m the only person in my role at the company and have been a key person in developing our team as we look to expand. Is this unreasonable? Is there a normal increase given with promotions?

For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?

I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research.

It’s a director of sales role so I would eventually be recruiting and managing a team along with building the processes and strategy. What would you consider a fair compensation package? If they offer me something on the lower end of the range, is it still appropriate to counter with an offer that is over their stated range?
