Thanks for the notes guys! And for anyone worrying about leaving for industry and taking a pay cut - I'm getting a ~$50k bump in total comp over what I would make as a 1 here. Am moving into Corp Strat for an industrials company.

After I got my offer (with no signing bonus) they said they only gave signing bonuses if the offeree was giving up something. I told them I had a lot to think about since I was hoping for a little more salary and was giving up my bonus for this performance year (which was true even though it wouldn't be paid until September). My prior years' bonus was 24.5% of my salary so I said I expected it to be ~$40k and they took like a week and came back and offered a $40k signing bonus. And I said "Where do I sign?" I always offered to show pay slips and didn't lie about my percentages. They never asked to see them.

@D4 I didn't negotiate the base, that's just what they offered me. I did negotiate a signing bonus though and for my start date to be after my promotion/GSAP (I got the offer in November). So maybe you could start looking now (or in 1-2 months) and go in telling them you're looking for a 9/15 start.

Op, could you share how you approached the signing bonus negotiation? What did you to support your position?

Why does the off cycle promo hurt.?

like

Yeah it hurts with bonuses and raises. I was here 17 months with only a 2% raise (five months in) despite being a 1 performer. Then my 1 raise and bonus was on a lower base so I'm still making less than lower rated peers who also got promoted earlier.

New/pivoting into HR! 👋 Currently working as a TA Coord with a little entry level work in HR Ops prior to this.

I didn’t go to school for HR and therefore haven’t had the opportunity to sample HR Ops. vs. TA vs. Comp vs. Benefits vs. Payroll, etc. I know work experience is the best barometer, but what can supplement this?

My team at work is awesome and I only work 40 hours per week! The work is a little boring though and to be honest, we don’t have much to do. I feel my professional development trajectory slowed down when I took this job 10 months ago. The pay is ok. Not great. Not bad. I have about 4 years work experience.

A) I should stay and focus on the positives (I have a lot of free time).

B) apply to a new job and back on the hustle (I could probably get a promotion too this way).

C) something else.
