Totally been there. Run the math: last year’s hourly pay plus average overtime versus the new salary plus benefits, PTO value, and any bonus upside. If it’s a net loss, ask to adjust comp, add a shift diff, or set a comp time policy for peak weeks. If they won’t budge, treat it as a stepping stone and start looking elsewhere.
That's the biggest drawback to becoming salaried, especially if you were used to working OT when you were hourly. Not getting that time and a half pay sucks. Whether it's worth it really boils down to the opportunities the new title opens up for you. If it's a net positive in the long run, it's worth the temporary pay cut. If all that title does is increase your responsibilities, it's not worth it.
