I’m a IT PM with 5yrs experience, and I’m asking for 100k base. Am I asking for too much? Im based in the DMV area and I have a PMP as well.

My first thought: no, but depends. 100k base for most companies is like a L2.

What’s your specialty/area of focus?

I have many options to consider but two options below are what I’m thinking of right now.

I want to see your thoughts on which one I should pick.

Job A: Project Engineer. 135K/yr base. 10% signing bonus.

Job B: Senior Project Manager. Contract. $60/hr standard. $90/hr overtime.

Additional Information added / pinned in the comments.

💲For those who DON'T think a six figure salary is possible:

👉Just ask for it. Really, you would be surprised. Might be easier to switch to a new company and ask. I did that 3 years into my career.

And 🛑 wasting your time at a company that under-values you severely. Sometimes switching companies every 2 years or so will allow you to keep raising the bar for yourself.

Tips on how to deal with my direct report, the CMO, that won't honor the bonus structure in my offer letter? Over the last 2 months he's come to me with 2 re-negotiations, both lower than the original. I've countered saying I'll accept a lower bonus structure if my base is raised. Not sure who else in the company is involved/aware - he's my only point of contact. I'm 6 mths into the job and enjoy it, but this is a major red flag. Should I find a new job or hold my ground and see what happens?

I work at st Christopher’s hospital for children in Philadelphia PA. And RD starting salary is $61,000.

Thoughts on this for any fellow RDs?
