I’m being asked to take over as office manager after layoffs - while still supporting my execs. Reasonable salary ask for a non-NYC/SF/LA city?

Depends on what you make now... I’d say 10-15k more, but If it’s a temporary fix they probably won’t give you anything.

No such thing as temporary fix at an agency. If they can get you to do two or three jobs for the same pay, they will until you quit.

If they will be paying out now asking you to fill two full time jobs for the price of one (including i assume, your benefits, HC, etc) - it would make sense that you could get between 80-100ishk, or more? - - its a large spectrum, but i don't know your office size or company scope.

RE has slowed down IMO. Still some work in multifamily and new construction/development (and workouts/restructurings/foreclosures), but hotels, office, retail not doing great at the moment for obvious reasons. Have heard of multiple layoffs, but not mass layoffs yet, and I don’t think we’re going to mass layoffs since this is clearly a temporary pandemic related issue.

Would love to hear from others on what they’re seeing in RE. Please share your geographic market/firm size/relevant info.

I’m currently at a hospitality design firm in the DC area and while i love working on cool hotel projects, the work culture is toxic. Coworkers all gossip about each other, coworkers pass off blame when things go wrong on a project, and the principal doesn’t do anything about issues. The firm has no structure, workflow, standards, etc. and the company is very cheap and does not invest money into their staff. I make 65k with 4 yr experience. Should i leave?

I've been working as a senior writer at
a manufacturing firm for the past 7
months. Got a management
opportunity, along with an 18K pay
bump. When I gave notice, my
company matched the salary and
offered me a title change. I then went
back and thanked the new company
for their time as I felt obligated to give
my current company a chance since
they vouched for me. Now, the
new place is offering me an additional
10K after I already told my current
employer I'd stay. Thoughts?
