I am surprised (or maybe not?) at how little some retail stores offer their staff in terms of benefits, even for fulltime employees. Over the years it has made me question what "fair compensation" really looks like in this industry. I am located in Canada. Do you think benefits are improving, or still falling short?

I’m located in the United States. Benefits here are hot garbage for retail employees. Even if you’re lucky enough to get classified as a full time employee. Things are not improving.

That is so frustrating to hear.

Benefits are still very much falling short. Year after year they continuously get worse and not better. I think benefits are worse in retail than a lot of other sectors too.

I agree.

Consider moving to America?

Hi all, I moved into a role in marketing about 9 months ago and they let me know they were starting me off at $42k CAD because I was entering with no marketing background. Now that I've had time to learn more and show my abilities I wanted to get a feel for what Junior marketers make so I can ask for proper compensation when the time comes.

I spent the last 3 months "growing up" & now I'm ready to go. 1st thing is for me to get my own place. I'd like to buy instead of rent because I don't want to pay someone else's mortgage.

I'm thinking of selling my car & cash out some of my 401k to buy a house. My thought is to put down 3.5% for a FHA loan then make a big payment towards the principal to reduce long-term interest.

Anything wrong with this thinking or anything else I should consider?
