I was just offered a CUNY role. The title is Higher Education Assistant. According to Glassdoor, the average annual pay for that role is $83,418. However, I was offered $62,500. I requested for the minimum annual salary to be 75k. Does anyone have experience navigating the CUNY system and their pay?
Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Honestly…if you are open to accepting lower salary, don’t ask for maximum salary. It just sends a confused signal.
Ask for what you feel you deserve. If they cannot give it monetarily, pivot to PTO and other perks.

Everything is negotiable. Even if someone says otherwise.

You should ask for what you are worth and be able to tell them why you are worth that. If you think you bring more to the table than any other potential applicant, then ask for the max and tell them why. Don't ask for the max just because it's the max without a why. You'll come across as greedy and uneducated about the market.
I would say that could be true but not always about being greedy and uneducated. I’ve done many searches on salary and it is well over what companies actually offer. But this wasn’t my scenario. I just thought it was interesting. Thanks for your input. I also think it’s smarter to ask for what you’re worth.
Ask for what you think you’re worth and back it up with your experience and knowledge
I agree with that.
