Is Washington super low paying or something? They are offering me $60/hr and I’m usually $125/hr.

In my experience, yes. I am sure there are a couple of agencies that pay better but even Microsoft offered me like $50 an hour

They probably offered you $50 through a staffing agency.

Could be the agency or market. It’s up to you but I personally tell them the range I’d work with. If the job is super easy (including people management) then a slightly lower rate is ok but 60 is too low. They won’t get good talent with those budgets.

Different industry markets, different clients, different work. I think it should be less about where the work is and more about WHAT the work is. We shouldn’t be constrained to the place where we work to determine our pay.

Is this through a staffing agency? If so they’re probably taking half.

No I never do recruiters/staffing agency

Are you a JR?

Location doesn’t matter

Market is cooling and rates are coming down... But yeah that's low.

rates are not going down…

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter. The hiring manager was very straight forward with me that I was his top candidate and I was told all other interviews were very positive incl CMO. The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?
