Is asking expected hrs during the offer phase a reasonable question? It's a startup and I just want to know if it's a 40 hr gig or an 80 hr gig

You could frame it like “what does you day look like — can you walk me through when you get on, log off… no need to sugar coat, I’m used to consulting hours”

This is definitely something you should ask.

I would rephrase it for sure. That’s a quick way to lose an offer.

This, they won’t think you’re a team player as startups always have a sense of family

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role at a company based in SF. I’m genuinely excited about the role and the company but we’ve yet to discuss salary. I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research. I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?

Hello Fishes,

I have 2 offers in hand currently -
1. CGI - 25LPA +1L JB
2. Neev systems - 23LPA (5%VP)

Neev systems is ready to negotiate it with CGI. And both companies have their own benefits.

Neev's hike is good compared to CGI(almost double) & CGI have some additional perks like cab facility, Creche allowance, mobile, internet bills reimbursements and additional 5% shares.

Both might have similar WLB (12-9pm).

My DOJ is tomorrow, unable to decide between them. Pls help me!!
