Hi Fishes,
Any news of hikes in OSSI?
35, Chicago, UX Associate Director - 135k

I got a remote L6 SWE offer at Google but the RSUs are too low for that level ($625k over 4 years), could not negotiate it higher. I’ve accepted the offer but trying to be hopeful that I could make it more equitable in the future if I perform well. Are stock refreshers based on the initial RSU grant or solely based on performance? Google

It's understandable that you feel you should be compensated more for the additional responsibilities you have been asked to take on. Here are some tips for negotiating a better hourly rate:
Do some research: Look up the average hourly rate for veterinary technicians in your area with your level of experience and the additional responsibilities you are taking on. This will give you a baseline for what you can reasonably ask for.
Schedule a meeting with your manager: Ask to schedule a meeting with your manager to discuss your compensation. It's important to approach the conversation in a professional and respectful manner.
Highlight your contributions: During the meeting, bring up specific examples of how you have gone above and beyond your duties, such as your ability to function as a lead/supervisor, your experience in various roles, and your contributions to bringing in business. This will help your manager understand why you feel you should be compensated more.
Be prepared to negotiate: Your manager may not agree to your initial proposal, so be prepared to negotiate. Be clear about what you are looking for and be willing to compromise on other factors, such as additional benefits or vacation time.
Follow up: If your manager agrees to a new hourly rate, make sure to follow up in writing to confirm the agreement. If they do not agree to a higher rate, ask for feedback on what you can do to improve your chances of a raise in the future.
As for how much to ask for, it's difficult to give a specific number without knowing more about your experience and the average hourly rate in your area. However, based on your current rate and the additional responsibilities you have taken on, it would be reasonable to ask for a 10-15% increase in your hourly rate.
This is extremely helpful information! Thank you!!
I would suggest negotiating for a high hourly rate . Both position differ from each other. I honestly think there isn’t any formal way to go about it .
Just sit down with them , respectfully tell them that the additional workload that they are wanting you do ( supervisor ) is not part of your current job description and would consider the position if you were properly getting the correct salary for that position . You have to consider it’s an added stress on your plate that you have to worry about . I would think if the manager can be out of the office 3 out of 4 days , they should be able to pay for that .
We are open 7 days a week and each work 4/10s so we only overlap on one day a week.
As a fellow unlicensed tech, I agree that you should sit down with your supervisor and discuss a raise. By taking on more responsibility under a new title, it should be a given to get a change in pay rate. I would ask for a $2 raise personally.
How many yoe do you have in total? You can leverage your yoe and certifications (if any). You should talk to your manager and tell him/her about this matter.
I also think you deserve a much higher hourly rate. Have you tried asking for a raise? In my opinion, a 5-15% increase is reasonable since you have a lot of experience.
