I just got an offer (woo!) and was planning on signing it tomorrow AM and giving my two weeks. Problem is two weeks from tomorrow is the 2nd. I have the 1st and the 2nd scheduled off as PTO. I already have a 4th of July trip booked and need those days off. Is it rude to not be able to give a full two weeks? How should I make note of that when I give my two weeks tomorrow?

Thanks!

is your start date the 5th or the 12th ?

I would ask your manager what they’d like you to do and give them the option to either have less than 2 weeks or extend it by a few days. My guess is they will chose the former but you should let them choose.

Is it a red flag as a candidate to ask if a company offers maternity leave? I was recently laid off, so I wasn't expecting to lose my job. We're planning on trying for a baby in the next year or so, so it's really important to me that my next job offers paid maternity leave.

The issue is that it's so rarely advertised on company web sites, but ultimately better maternity leave would sway my decision for a job. Is there a way to ask this tactfully? Or without raising red flags?

Hey there,

I am in TAC for a fairly large networking company. I am making 48k a year with decent benefits and unlimited PTO. I love working at this company and my boss is fantastic. However, I feel as though I am being underpaid given my credentials. I have my CCNA and almost have my CWNA. I am coming up on a year at the company and want to start either negotiating higher pay or looking elsewhere. What should I do and how should I go about it?
