I’m looking to change companies but about half my current comp is the annual bonus which is paid out in February/March. Is it normal to negotiate a sign-on bonus relative to the bonus you’ll be losing as part of the job change?

Yes very typical, they need to buy out your YE bonus (if >6 months in) or let you stay until you collect before moving on.

Agreed. Don’t expect much of a negotiation though in the current economy when many companies are forecasting a down year in 2024.

We are looking to hire a FTE for systems integration. We are using Mulesoft as an IPAAS. I’m part of the hiring team. The pay is 6 figures it is fully remote, the benefits are insanely good and it can be your second job if you are very good. If you are great, it’s probably 15-20 hours of work per weeks. If you are good enough, I will even cover for you to coordinate with your primary job. DM me if you are interested as I’m tired of the crappy recruiting company we are contracted with.

Anyone who has started up a side hustle whilst working in consulting - is it generally a good idea to let your employer know or will they make your life difficult/try to push you out if they know?

(Context - I need the extra income to have a shot at affording grad school, I work for a small boutique, job contract was ambiguous on the issue. Side hustle is selling stuff I make as a hobby on Amazon)
