I was offered $99,840 for a Branch Director position with a home health organization and attempted to negotiate a salary of 10% more since I have many years of managerial experience as an RN and they had told me the salary range was $100-$110K. They were not willing to negotiate, and then they also rescinded their offer. Why do you think that be?

That seems low to me.. but I see this happening a lot more. Companies are in a stingey era right now because of all the layoffs and how the balance of power has shifted to the employer.

Honestly, it’s probably a blessing in disguise. They’re looking for the lowest cost candidate. And I’m sorry.. at 10k dollar range for a director role?? Maybe I’m jaded, but that doesn’t sounds like a role someone with lots of experience would consider, at that wage.

You were right to negotiate, I always tell people to advocate for themselves. They probably had someone will to do it for 90k.

Either way - you dodged a bullet. Keep your head up, keep negotiating and get yourself a good job with good pay. You got this!! 💪

Probably gives the impression that you won’t be there for the long run if they aren’t willing to pay you what you wanted? Just thinking out loud.

How did you ask? Odd to reneg on you unless you were too aggressive or something

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about.

It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
