I will possibly be getting a machinist role through some contacts, and I have no experience in the field and I’m wondering what I could expect to make, when I look up average salaries for a machinist position I see around 65k but that seems too good for my age and experience so I’m wondering what some others in the trade on here are making

Well what is your location and do you have an internships experience? Also go about 20% higher than the average for negotiation even tho you think you might not be worth that much. The hiring manager usually want to pay you as low as possible.

The location is in Houston, and I don’t have any intern experience, I’ve been working since I was young just nothing in this field.

Curious did you land the job? Texas is rough for machinist pay. Hell I run a machine shop (have for the last decade) and haven’t broke 60k even with OT

Hello all, i have. A question regarding compensation for a lateral move. I just received a job offer for an UA position from a competing cyber insurance carrier for $70,000 + bonuses. This job will be based out of San Francisco. I currently make $30/hour for the same role in Chicago, after OT it’s about $60,000. Do you think it would be wise to accept the offer? Thoughts in general?
