Just got back from an interview where they told me it was a regular six days and the position was actually for multiple locations?! Like what ? I know working six days is common when you have multiple jobs but for that to be the REQUIREMENT?!

At least post that in the ad you are waisting peoples time disclosing hidden requirements at the interview.

I responded “ that seems quite abusive this doesn’t sound like a good job.” And got up and left.

This industry needs serious reform

Seriously, good for you for calling them on it and walking out! We need more of that. Do they have a Glassdoor page? I'd leave your interview experience there too as a warning to others. I am so tired of businesses that operate this way.

That's pretty horrendous. I mean, it's not the 1800s, the five-day week has been around for a century. Good for you for getting up and leaving. I suppose someone will need a job so badly that they'll accept the offer, but it's just wrong.

Wow, glad someone called them out on that! Are they prepared to pay overtime? If it's an hourly job, they can't make you work more than 40 hours a week without paying over time. Even still. 6 days a week is madness! Glad you didn't let them push you into that

Many items not mentioned in job ads could easily become decision points for people to apply or to not apply. It would save interviewer and interviewee time and money.

I guess it depends on pay for me. I would work 6 days if they paid me overtime! But yeah, they sound a bit sketchy to me…

Outside of salary, what other things have people negotiated as new hire, I’ve seen more PTO, working from home, sign on bonus, even stock options? How have you negotiated these things especially if you are new to negotiating? Any books or references that gave you a great foundation.
